Brand Story Ovation began more than fifty years ago, when an American entrepreneur, designer, and guitarist Charles Kaman presented his vision of the modern acoustic guitar.
Kaman had experience in the development and production of helicopters, which allowed him to approach the construction of musical instruments differently from traditional guitar manufacturers.
His goal was to combine classical guitar principles with modern materials and technological processes.
One of the most remarkable outcomes of Kaman's development was the construction of a guitar body utilizing a special composite material. Lyrachord® and the distinctive rounded shape of the rear part referred to as Roundback®.
This combination represented a new approach to acoustic sound and set Ovation guitars apart from traditional wooden instruments.
A significant milestone in the history of the Ovation brand was the development of electro-acoustic guitars with piezoelectric pickups.
Technology has made it possible to amplify the sound of an acoustic guitar so that it can stand out even in a band or on a large concert stage.
The combination of modern sound, original design, and comfortable playability has contributed to the international success of the Ovation brand.
