Ovation Applause 6 String Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Right, Ruby Red, Mid Depth

The new Applause guitar line from Ovation showcases the brand's forward-thinking approach, while upholding the high-performance standards expected of a quality instrument. The Applause Balladeer models feature traditional Ovation appointments, such as a spruce top, scalloped-X bracing, and an abalone-inlaid rosette. A sleeker headstock design lends an aesthetic that many aspire to emulate.

Complementing the traditional construction, the Ovangkol fingerboard and bridge, paired with a mid-depth bowl, allow for effortless and comfortable playing. To tie the package together, Ovation has updated the electronics to the new CE304T preamp. Coupled with the Ovation Slimline pickup, the result is an incredible voice and clarity that will captivate your ears.

The new Applause Standard models follow suit, retaining the same Ovation hallmarks – a spruce top, scalloped-X bracing, and an abalone-inlaid rosette. The sleek headstock design creates a visually appealing look, while the Ovangkol fingerboard, bridge, and mid-depth bowl ensure a smooth, comfortable playing experience.

At the heart of the Applause Standard lies the CE304T preamp, paired with the Ovation Slimline pickup. This combination delivers upgraded electronics that offer remarkable clarity, definition, and tonal balance, elevating the guitar's overall performance.

New for 2017, the Ovation Lyrachord Mid-Depth Cutaway model features the same Ovangkol fingerboard and bridge, providing players with a comfortable and effortless playing experience. The Applause line is further enhanced by the integration of the CE304T preamp, complete with a three-band EQ and a built-in tuner, as well as the Ovation Under the Saddle Piezo Pickup.

To ensure the Applause guitars are well-protected, Ovation recommends the 8158-0 hard-shell case or the 8358-0 Zero Gravity Guitar case as accompanying accessories.

In conclusion, the new Applause guitar line from Ovation seamlessly blends forward-thinking design with the brand's renowned performance standards. The combination of traditional Ovation appointments and modern upgrades, such as the sleek headstock, Ovangkol components, and the CE304T preamp, creates an instrument that offers both aesthetic appeal and exceptional playability. Whether you're a seasoned musician or an aspiring player, the Applause series from Ovation is sure to captivate and inspire.
