Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Had to return as it had the notorious "lifting bridge." Sounded good for this level of guitar, but started to lose tune easily on low strings. Then I saw the bubble around the bridge. What a disappointment. I just picked up guitar again after yeeaars of hiatus and get a lemon. GoDpsMusic is no help with support, so avoid purchasing from this vendor. They are garbage.*UPDATE after multiple calls and much persistence, I was able to get Ovation's parent company to replace the guitar. GoDPs helped somewhat but you will have a lot of round robin talk from Amazon, GOdps and Ovation. The proof of purchase is what Ovation is looking for if you happen to get one of these defective guitars.
Bought it for our son's 13th birthday and he loves it. Both he and my husband play and it is a beautiful looking and sounding guitar at a fantastic price. The neck and other components are even better in person than they look in the image. The built in tuner is a little gimmicky (my husband's words) but found frequently now. He prefers another tuner but said for now it would be fine for the kid.
My husband liked it so much... he said if he didn't have the one he already has, he would buy one for himself.
There are tons of people who say that they don't like the Ovation sound with artificial back. But I love it. Everything about this geetar is fantastic. For the price, you just about can't do better.
I bought this guitar on amazon 2 years ago. I shaved down the bridge to lower the action. The sound hole trim was loose so I glued it down with super glue. Otherwise, is a great guitar fur the money. The neck is smooth and the frets are polished. Or resonates well and has a nice bright sound. The pickup is pretty good. Overall, it's pretty good quality minus the loose sound hole trim which is a very minor thing to fix.

I've just begun learning so I do not have a professional perspective. It's gorgeous and comfortable, sounds nice and isn't hard to play. Straps are really easy to attach. I love the curved back, it's unique and sits comfortably against you while you play. Great combo of affordability and quality. Always excited to take it out and practice!
For the money it it is well worth the value, it will make a great gig instrument. Once amplified its so close to my $5,000 Taylor that its not worth the damage risk, be careful not to put too light a gauge of strings on it a s that will loose the tone, 10's are the minimum.
