Ovation DS778 Longneck Guitar - The pride and joy of those restlessly innovative Ovation engineers. With its 28 1/3" scale, the LongNeck is amazingly versatile. Fat and chunky, the tonal and tuning possibilities are endless.
The new OP40 system leaves other systems back in the 20th century. The eq has a Mid-Shift switch that moves the center frequency of the mid band between 400Hz and 900Hz. It also features a Pre-Shape circuit for that extra "cut" you need in live band situations. The ultra-steep notch filter can zap feedback one note at a time. All this control lets you zero in on your perfect personal tone.
