A long time ago, conventional wisdom said that the world was flat. Not very long ago, acoustic guitar purists believed that guitar backs should be flat as well. Enter the upstarts at Ovation. Guitarmaking is an art. So whatas with all the science? Itas true that guitarmaking is an art. But itas also a science. The ultimate judge is always our ears, but our technology helps us understand exactly why one guitar sounds different from another. Pioneers of the Plug Ovation introduced the first acoustic/electric guitars in 1971. They were an instant success with pros, and a whole new category of instruments was created. It was well over ten years before other guitarmakers offered anything that worked remotely as well as the Ovation pickup/preamp system.
