Ovation Elite 1778TX-5 Mid Bowl Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Ovation Elite TX from the Mod TX Collection is purpose-built for the stage, delivering high-performance features and bold aesthetics for modern acoustic players. With a solid AA Sitka spruce top and Ovation’s scalloped X-bracing, this guitar projects with power and balance, while the signature multi-port soundholes reduce feedback and enhance tonal clarity. The deep-contour Lyrachord® body ensures long-lasting playing comfort, adding warmth and punch to the low end.

A rock maple neck and Pau Ferro fretboard offer fast, responsive playability that electric players will find familiar and satisfying. The OP-Pro preamp and OCP1K pickup combo provides studio-grade sound with versatile tone shaping controls, ensuring consistent clarity in live or recording environments. Finished in a rugged black textured top with matching die-cast tuners, the Elite TX is a sleek, road-ready workhorse for serious performers.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.

If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.

Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain /  colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
