The Ovation 1526PBM-G is a surprisingly versatile instrument. Its unique Lyrachord body gives it a distinct, almost vocal-like tone, while the onboard electronics make it stage-ready.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Lyrachord’s rounded back creates more air volume inside, resulting in a fuller, more resonant tone with enhanced bass response compared to a typical acoustic.
The 43 mm nut width offers a bit more room than many guitars, and the 2 Piece Khaya neck has a relatively standard C shape, generally accommodating a range of hand sizes.
The K-21CT provides a clean, balanced amplified signal with a useful EQ section for shaping your tone, and the built-in tuner is handy for quick adjustments on stage.
