Ovation CU147-HBYPublished on 08/15/05 at 12:36
(This content has been automatically translated from French)
I possde Ovation Corenne this for about three months.
I was looking for a guitar and balance in which one can "fit" even if I play mostly picking. I wanted a good sound branch better than my ex (Phenix LC4).

The finish was surprised by its quality to a Coren, even if (see below) everything is not perfect.

If not for the spec:

. Format Mid Bowl coupbr pan />. Ovation Fund Lyrachord United States
. Table pica solid AA grade, A dam
. Mahogany neck / rosewood fingerboard 20 frets, pearl taken
. Ovation OP30 Prampli (volume / 3 band EQ / EQ Preshape / EQ Bypass / Mid Shift / Auto-Chromatic Tuner Intgr)
. Mcaniques oil bath, pearly buttons
. Fittings dorbr />. Colour:...…

UTILIZATION

The friend who I bought it (new) or rather with whom I was changing the handle trs play hard, I who have often not playing into the hands of the bars, I found myself immediately comfortable with it, go figure?!

There must be a story pitch, because I go to Martin as light on my tyrant and the Phenix seems much stronger on the Ovation, I prfre in fact, there's and we can sustain the play more on the percussive effect on attack, oh I got! Especially as the sound as full everywhere, y'all can cheerfully. Basically have to do it, but then APRS is happiness!

The action is too high of origin, the nut is not properly adjusted which is tiring in Premire position, I will make rgler, There are a frisouille rcurente in the bass that makes me think a dam may be a little dcoll and acute Eb 11th frieze box as it is totally clump therefore obligatory passage in the violin maker, but I have not yet found the courage to me spare.

Otherwise the feelings of games are consistent compltement what I wanted, I had a small pjug on Ovations (my Premire), well I love.

Level look, some days I find it beautiful, other times I find it a little kitsch, it is redder than the picture, rather better, in fact the table is really pretty.

The electronic trs is effective and versatile, you can quickly get a large variety of sounds all great.

Ergonomics, yeah, it's rounded derrire, but hey, I find comfort trs.

SOUNDS

Jazz, folk, blues, I even surprised resume consists of old classical influence with the same happiness.
To save on my PC, I plugged into my X-Vamp and I put a microphone (Oktava MK-102) approximately 40 cm face Douzima the box, your exact satisfy me, you can make a by listening to my com ide "Frescura."

I did not use it on scne, I would tell you.

I t trs enjoyable sound surprised, I expected something powerful and cool, is powerful indeed, but I like the tone, and especially the balance is really exeptional, it no hollow anywhere on the handle, the lower are Submitted, sharp treble. Its cold? The prjugs die hard, all plastok ft. l. .. So you know what, I'm playing, I close my eyes and I hear a patch trs interresting that the folk, the dobro, the lute, I found a nice what!

Well, relativize, there's probably a lot better, but the DJ There's really what making music.

OVERALL OPINION

Some dfaults deficits above easily correctable by a luthier in the RVision, part a, it's MY guitar! I get home, I let her go and I'm cratif since I have.

I like the sound, the touch a little hard but nervous, as I like arpond, can slam a rounded or will.

I do not possde large REFERENCE to compare, I've never tried to Ovation States, or folk high end, I read some comments on this ngatif MODEL, So j'tais mfiant.

I jou acqurant the wholesale, I changed it against my Ramirez R2 Classical (who morfler well and I did not play more) + My Phenix LC4, worth tration of 700Euros, given the average mnage, I was not allowed error.

I would do the same choice without a doubt, less than winning the lottery.
