Ovation Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 Acoustic/Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Vintage Lyrachord celebrates Ovation's history
  • Stereo FET preamp actively fights hum and noise
  • The perfect acoustic when you need to plug in

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 Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 features a body made from the same interwoven glass and hybrid resin as those original Ovation models. Not only is the Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 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 Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4when it comes to fighting hum and noise. That's because it 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 Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 a true Ovation modern classic.

The perfect acoustic when you need to plug in
If you're plugging in onstage, then the Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 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 Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 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.

Ovation Vintage Lyrachord 1627SL-4 Acoustic/Electric Guitar Features:
  • An acoustic-electric guitar that's perfect for plugging in onstage
  • Solid spruce top with scalloped X bracing and center-cut soundhole provide excellent projection
  • Body made from the same interwoven glass and hybrid resin as the original Ovations of the '60s and '70s
  • Shallow Vintage Lyrachord body is extremely lightweight and greatly reduces the possibility of feedback
  • Naturally reduced bass and boosted mids clean up your sound and cut through the mix
  • Onboard FET Stereo preamp fights hum and noise
  • 5-piece mahogany and maple neck features a fast thin carve
  • Vintage Ovation Oak Leaf soundhole rossette adds an extra touch of class
