Description
The Ovation Applause AE44-5S proves you don’t need to spend a fortune to get genuine Ovation engineering. This mid-depth acoustic-electric borrows the brand’s signature lyrachord body — the same rounded-back construction that’s defined Ovation’s sound for decades. Instead of a traditional flat-back design, the lyrachord bowl lets the top vibrate more freely, producing a resonant, balanced tone that projects well whether you’re playing plugged in or acoustically.
Where this guitar really sets itself apart is the neck. Ovation shaped the nato neck to feel like an electric guitar’s — noticeably slimmer than what you’d find on most traditional acoustics. Paired with an ovangkol fingerboard, that profile translates into faster playability and easier reach across the fretboard, which is especially welcome for players transitioning between electric and acoustic instruments or anyone who just wants less hand fatigue during long sessions.
