Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Ovation's right-handed CS24 pairs a solid spruce top with a mid-depth Lyrachord body for balanced acoustic output and natural projection. The nato neck and ovangkol fingerboard are intended to provide a smooth playing feel, while the CP-100 pickup and OP-4CT preamp bring onboard control to amplified setups. Use the bass, mid and treble controls to adjust the sound, tune with the built-in tuner, and retain settings in the preamp memory. It runs on two AA batteries.
Strong match
Who this is for

- Players wanting a mid-depth body with a solid spruce top and center soundhole.
