A Signature Ovation to Shred On!

For over 25 years Yngwie Malmsteen has been a staple in the metal/shred world. The Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Viper is the first acoustic-electric guitar to bear the neo-classical-shred master's name. A chambered mahogany body and cedar top offers up a big, full tone. You'll find the 5-piece mahogany and maple neck fast and inviting. The scalloped fretboard will give you a playing experience unlike any you have had before. Only the lightest of touches is needed for scalloped fretboards. They are extremely fast, accurate and re-active to your playing. Grab an Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper and start shredding today!

Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper Acoustic-electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Lightweight, chambered mahogany body
  • Lightning-fast scalloped fretboard
  • 5-Piece Speed and Beauty

Lightweight chambered mahogany body
A solid cedar top and lightweight chambered mahogany body give the Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper warm tone and great sustain. It will also save your back during those all-night gigs. Feedback is one of the biggest issues acoustic players have onstage. The chambered body and custom preamp circuitry help you eliminate this issue once and for all. Intentional amplifier feedback can be good, acoustic feedback is not!

Lightning-fast scalloped fretboard
True to Yngwie's personal taste, this guitar sports a scalloped ebony fretboard. A light touch is all you need to play blazing fast solos and insane riffs. A scalloped fretboard makes executing wild vibrato and bending notes easier than ever on the Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper.

5-Piece Speed and Beauty
The Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper's 5-piece mahogany and maple neck defines the ultra-fast Viper neck shape. 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.

Ovation Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Viper Acoustic-electric Guitar Features:
  • Acoustic guitar optimized for neo-classical shred
  • Scalloped fretboard for playing with a light touch
  • Chambered mahogany body is lightweight and toneful
  • Solid cedar top and ebony fretboard for enhanced tone
  • Viper EQ for natural acoustic tone with absolutely no feedback
