Actually the material on the back of Ovation guitars is Lyracord. I read many years ago, it is a space age material developed by Kaman Aviation for the nosecone of the Boeing Jets. The black nosecone on a Boeing Jumbo Jet is the same material as the back of an Ovation. This material developed by Charlie Kaman for aviation was discovered to have remarkable acoustic qualities and is almost indestructible. Charlie Kaman was also the man who started Ovation guitars in the Mid 60's.

Hi! Our store is currently moving from Oklahoma City to El Reno, Oklahoma, which is about 12 miles west of OKC on I-40. We bought a "Vintage" 100 year old building (built to be a J.C. Penny's in 1908) in downtown Historic El Reno. We are planning to put a vintage guitar museum in the third floor. We are so excited and hope you can come out when we get open sometime in October.

I am not currently a treacher, though I have done some teaching. I'm just a guy who has played for 42 years and have been guitar crazy for about that long too. I started collecting guitars in 1971 and I had about 200 pieces before I opened Oklahoma Vintage Guitar 10 years ago in 1998.

i swear to you ovation guitars if made in the USA are the best acoustic guitar to spend youre money on. they were designed so that sound would not get trapped in the corners of the guitar, and i assure you there is not a better guitar to buy! i have a washburn d10sce made in china. had it for about 6 months and i like it lots, but the next guitar i get is an USA Ovation.

im actually thinking about buying me an ovation, but i dont know if ill like the sound. How does it compare to the woods? Specifically im considering a taylor 214ce or an lx contour bowl. Whats the difference in sound between an ovation with a center soundhole and a 5 Piece Epaulets ovation?

We sell Martin, Taylor and Gibson all solid guitars & the Ovations hold their own well with them. The 200 Taylor has plywood back & sides. The Elite Style or "Epaulet" Ovation guitars as opposed to the 1 Soundholes are different animals. The Epaulets make it possible to do fan bracing & many people like the sound better. If you are a player like most players & you play more for pleasure than for performance, you will like the epaulet models, they give the player much more sound.
