S/H 1973 Ovation USA Eclipse 1235 Hollow-Body Electric Guitar, Black

From the listing

Seller's description

Standing ovation!  Melding a passion for music and aerospace engineering, Charles Kaman developed and introduced new material never before used in guitar manufacture - Lyrachord! A strain of fibreglass that was strong enough to hold shape without bracing, whilst being thin enough to optimise vibration and even enough to create a balanced resonance. It became the hallmark of Ovation guitars and one of the most staggering developments in guitar design in some 400 years!  Whilst Ovation are famed for their bowl-back acoustic guitars, they have historically dipped their toes into electric guitar manufacture, offering us this beautiful 1972/73 Ovation Eclipse that followed on from their 'Storm' series of the late 60's. Comprised of a Lyrachord, semi-hollow body with imported German (likely Hofner/Schaller) 'Blade' humbucking pickups, Trapeze tailpiece and the signature Ovation headstock. This guitar was designed to traverse time and space, and it's done a good job of it so far!  In lovely condition, with barely a mark on it for its age. It comes with our customary two year set up and servicing warranty included in the price.  Feel free to get in touch for any further information via the contact for below!
