Vintage Lyrachord series celebrates Ovation's history
When you pick up a vintage Ovation guitar built back in the '60s or '70s, the first thing you notice is its lightweight back and comfortably slim neck carve. That's exactly what Ovation set out to recreate with their Vintage Lyrachord series. That's why the Artist VL features a body made from the same interwoven glass and hybrid resin as those original Ovation models. Not only is the Artist VL even lighter than Ovation's standard models, it also sports a thinner and faster neck carve that's incredibly fun to play.

Stereo FET preamp actively fights hum and noise
Few acoustic guitars can compete with the Ovation Artist VL when it comes to fighting hum and noise. That's because the Artist VL features Ovation's ultra-quiet Stereo FET preamplifier. Not only does this preamp give you stunning stereo output with virtually no noise or hum, but its FET-based electronics deliver smooth and extremely warm overtones. In fact, these are an upgraded version of the same electronics that launched the acclaimed Adamas acoustic/electric line back in 1979, making the Artist VL a true Ovation modern classic.

The perfect acoustic when you need to plug in
If you're plugging in onstage, then the Artist VL is the acoustic you want to be playing. Not only does its preamp all but eliminate hum and buzz, but its extra shallow body actually reduces the possibility of creating feedback. What's more, the Artist VL naturally reduces lows and boosts mids and highs, getting rid of frequencies that muddy up your sound and boosting those that help you cut through the mix.
