** OVATION B778TX-5-G TX Black Textured **NEW B-Stock Model (New Strings & Full Setup by our Guitar Tech)B-Stock: factory repair (see last picture)Original Cardbox and accessories included.The history of Ovation is one of a major technological breakthrough in the world of guitar making, born from the visionary mind of Charles Kaman, an aeronautical engineer. By applying his knowledge of vibrations and composite materials in the 1960s, he created a guitar capable of projecting sound with unprecedented clarity and power, thanks to its famous parabolic Lyrachord body. This iconic design not only solved feedback issues on stage but also redefined instrument ergonomics, making Ovation the preferred choice for top performing artists worldwide.The Ovation B778TX-5 fits perfectly into this lineage of excellence, offering a remarkably fluid playing experience. This model immediately stands out due to its provenance, benefiting from the manufacturing rigor of Korean workshops—an origin that today serves as a true seal of quality for connoisseurs. Unlike more recent Chinese-produced series, this instrument demonstrates obsessive attention to detail in its finish and exemplary structural stability, guaranteeing lifelong reliability whether in the studio or on intensive tours.The superiority of this version is also expressed through the noble, uncompromising choice of construction materials. While current production standards increasingly turn toward Pau Ferro, this model proudly features a solid Ebony fingerboard and bridge. This precious wood, known for its exceptional density and deep black hue, offers a crisp attack and incomparable note precision while ensuring an absolutely smooth feel under the fingers. The alliance of high-grade ebony with a solid Sitka spruce top allows for optimal vibrational transfer, releasing a sonic dynamic rich in harmonics.Equipped with a Mid-Depth body that perfectly balances acoustic projection and playing comfort, this guitar is a true "tone machine." The cutaway allows total access to the upper frets, while the sleek, modern aesthetic of the Elite TX finish highlights the instrument's professional character. This is a choice piece for any guitarist who refuses the compromises of today’s mass production and seeks the unique sonic signature of an Ovation built according to the highest standards, where every material detail directly serves the musical performance.Specifications:Elite SeriesMIK (Made In Korea)Serial Number: K19020053Type: 4-String Electro-Acoustic BassTop: Solid Sitka Spruce (A-grade)Bracing: Scalloped X-bracingBody: Lyrachord® GS mid-depth (signature Ovation roundback)Soundhole: Multi-soundhole design (bass-side offset)Neck: MapleNeck Profile: Flat / Low profileFingerboard: EbonyBridge: EbonyScale Length: 864 mm (34")Nut Width: 42.8 mmNumber of Frets: 22Pickup: OCP-1K (high-output piezo)Preamp: OP-Pro with built-in tunerTuners: Ovation die-cast (Anthracite/Black finish)
