Ovation Pro Series Legend 1767-4S-G USA Deep Bowl
One of the many stories about this guitar series tells of how Linda McCartney wanted to give her husband Paul an Ovation guitar for Christmas because he thought it was so great. In the end, an Ovation Legend ended up under the Christmas tree... in the left-handed version, of course.
When Ovation developed the Legend series, they were looking for a special sound concept that would enable the guitars to not lose energy in any frequency range. Full basses, clear trebles and strong mids.
A harmonious body - a tuned body
As with all Ovation guitars, the hand-selected wood top is applied to a Lyrachord bowl. Since Lyrachord resonates at a clearly defined frequency, the top could be designed to resonate at a complementary frequency. The result is a "tuned" guitar body that produces a full, smooth sound.
An A for an X.
Most high-quality Ovation guitars use cross-braced reinforcing braces called "X-bracing" to stabilise the top. To better support the material's ability to vibrate, the reinforcements on the Ovation Legend Series are placed in an A-shape along the grain of the wood. This "A-Bracing" significantly improves resonance in the mid and bass ranges and contributes to a balanced sound across all frequencies.
Ovation Legend - its one of a kind.
