Elite 12-string models build upon our philosophy of constructing unique instruments for visionary players. With their striking silhouettes and understated finishes, Elite Series guitars make a statement all their own. Known for reliability in any performance situation, this is a guitar that was built to shift the musical landscape. The classic Ovation Elite is better than its ever been.

The deep contour, Lyrachord® body maximizes acoustic output and is ergonomically designed for comfort in any playing position. Laser cut, exotic wood epaulets and multi-port soundholes on the upper bout give focused articulation. A cutaway offers full access to the 5-piece, mahogany/maple neck. The full-featured OP-Pro preamp includes a 3-band equalizer, Pre EQ and onboard tuner and connects to any sound system, stage amp, or recording console. Case not included.
