OVATION 1769ADII Details
Finish shown is black, also available in natural
Just because it sports a center-soundhole, don't dare call it traditional.
The Ovation roundback body, AAA top and five-piece neck are crafted into an
instrument that yields unwavering tonal control - lowest low to highest high
- a clarity and volume that is simply unattainable to "traditional"
guitarmakers.
Abalone Artistry
Over 300 individual pieces of abalone shell are hand-inlaid into each Custom
Elite and Custom Legend, a stunning appearance in any finish. The Custom Legend
rosette is also abalone shell in the Ovation oak leaf pattern. Both rank with
the finest custom made instruments as examples of pure guitarmaking art.
The Ultimate Spruce Soundboard
These AAA-graded tops are the most flexible and consistent Sitka spruce tops
available. Only 5% of all our graded tops are chosen for these fine instruments.
Notice that the Custom Legend A-shaped bracing and the Quintad pattern used
on the Custom Elite are primarily longitudinal, giving the top greater freedom
of vibration. The result is a guitar that can pump out a tremendously broad
and powerful sound.
5-Piece Speed and Beauty
The 5-piece mahogany and maple neck is contoured to a "soft-V", the
most ergonomic of neck shapes. The bound ebony fingerboard is decorated with
abalone inlays and fitted with nickel silver frets. Each of the frets is crowned,
dressed and polished by hand, then the fingerboard and neck are finished with
Danish oil.

Output Connections
The XLR jack featured on certain OP-Pro equipped guitars gives you a professional,
balancedline connection to mixers and high-end acoustic amps. The phantom power
capability allows your mixer to power the preamp. Any XLR cable with a ground-to-shell
connection (Ovation P/N 9658-0) is required for the auto power-on function.
A "dummy plug" (Ovation P/N 9659-0) inserted into the 1/4" jack
can be used instead, if the proper XLR cable is not available.
The 1/4" jack on all models provides an unbalanced, line-level connection
to most any amplification system. Inserting a plug into this jack also turns
on the preamp system. Please note that the tuner is functional without any connection.
