Description: DJ GEAR INSTRUMENT GEAR LIVE SOUND RECORDING MICROPHONES HEADPHONES ACCESSORIES SOFTWARE LIGHTING BUNDLES Authorized Dealer - Full Warranty Ovation Pro Series Elite TX 1868TX-5 A/E Guitar - Black Textured 6-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Brand New - Description Product Details Elite Ovation Elite models are special, both for the eyes and the ears. They dispense with the classic sound hole in the middle of the top in favour of several smaller openings at the edge of the guitar, called Multi Soundholes. This special construction has two positive effects: firstly, it increases the available vibration surface in the centre of the soundboard, and secondly, the sound comes out much closer to the ear of the person playing. Visually, the Multi Soundholes are unique in themselves. Some models are additionally decorated with elegant epaulettes. A guaranteed eye-catcher on all stages. Another contributor towards the appealing acoustic sound of these instruments is their high-quality spruce tops made of grade-A wood. But what would an Ovation be without the typical electro-acoustic sound via amp or PA? This is provided by an OCP1K pickup, whose extra-large piezo crystals pick up the vibrations not only from the strings but also from the top. For further processing of the signal, an OP-Pro preamp is used in this model series. The instruments of the Elite TX series are particularly unique, and it is no coincidence that they are very popular in the rock and metal scene. Those who are used to playing electric guitars especially benefit enormously from features like the maple neck, which not only stands for a fast response and good sustain but is also equipped with a flat neck profile for optimal playability. As an added bonus, all TX models are finished in a beautiful, genre-matching Black Textured finish. The Elite TX Series range includes guitars of various body depths and scales. Among them are both 6- and 12-string models, as well as a 4-string bass. The guitars are delivered without a case. For those who want to take their instrument on tour, we recommend an Ovation 8158K-0 ABS case for Deep Contour and Mid Depth models, an Ovation 8117K-0 ABS case for Super Shallow models and for the bass, the Ovation MC-4 case. Additional Information A class of its own. Exceptional features, outstanding sounds and a consistently high level of quality are the basic recipe for the Ovation Pro Series. Over the last five decades, Ovation has made a name for itself through groundbreaking developments and modern designs, especially in circles of advanced and professional musicians. Legendary world stars have been swearing by the instruments of the American high-end maker for decades, and so model names such as Balladeer, Legend and Elite contribute significantly to the name recognition of the Ovation brand to this day. All these historic models, with their specific features, are combined in the Pro Series and still form the core range of Ovation Guitars.
