    Type: Electro-acoustic bass guitar
    Strings: 4 strings
    Brand: Ovation / Applause
    Type: AE 140
    Finish: Natural
    Neck: rosewood, 21 frets
    Body: Lyrachord with deep cutaway
    Preamp: OP10 with 3-band equalization, 9-volt battery operation
    Made in: Korea

    UTILIZATION

    The neck feels comfortable for an acoustic bass guitar.
    Access to the upper frets is easy thanks to the deep cutaway.
    Very light. You'll have to get used to the rounded Ovation back that makes it slide away when you play without a strap.

    SOUNDS

    Very good result for me (acoustic folk / rock).
    The "double bass-like" sound is quite round and warm.
    It has a slight level loss on the 1st string when plugged.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've owned this bass guitar for 2 years.
    I like its acoustic sound and output due to the body shape. It sounds really good unplugged.
