Guitar Custom Ovation Breadwinner Copy Full Scallop Neck
This guitar was built for me in 2020 when I was having the most difficulty with tendonitis. Had I been able to order a short scale neck, I don't think I"d part with it.
I’d like to briefly point out some of the benefits that the Breadwinner has that you may not have known. First off is the shape. The Breadwinner was actually one of the first mass produced ergonomic guitars and its a shame that the trend didn’t continue. Sure, now, body and hand heath is starting to become popularized such as with Strandberg and Aristides, but back then (and still these days) it’s “cool” to hang the guitar at the waistline - forcing your wrist to curl in an unnatural position and to slump your back to reach the neck.
The Breadwinner shape and weight proportions forces the neck up, so your fret hand is not holding the neck….allowing one to play more freely. Second, the shape is PERFECT for playing while you sit (as I do). The guitar body fits in like a glove to the legs and chest as the neck points almost 45 degrees - and again improving your playing. Lastly, the full scalloped neck is a players dream as it conditions you to apply less finger pressure for quicker runs and increased play time.
Included is a brand new padded soft case with pockets and backpack straps.
If you live in the Los Angeles area, please feel free to contact me and play it yourself.
