1976 Ovation 1614-4 Folklore in very, very rare left-handed version. The Folklore revives Ovation\u2019s early \u201cJosh White\u201d concept: a 12-fret, slotted-head steel-string built for articulate fingerstyle and easy projection from the deep Lyrachord bowl.<\/p>\n
Mid-\u201970s examples like this carry Ovation\u2019s original onboard FET preamp with stacked (and supercool looking) volume\/tone on the upper bout and an under-saddle transducer\u2014simple, quiet, and ready for stage or studio.<\/p>\n
This guitar is almost 50+ years old and has seen a LOT of gigs. There\u2019s lots of playwear and scattered dings on the spruce top, as well as marks on the bowl. A headstock crack (not break) has been professionally repaired and is fully stable. Frets are in very good condition with plenty of life. The original electronics are intact and working. Neck feel is the desirable \u201cwide slim\u201d, with a generous nut width for spacing, paired with a relatively shallow depth. Weight is 2400g. Includes original case, which is intact and working but also worn.<\/p>\n
The Folklore was Ovation\u2019s 12-fret, slot-head alternative to the more common models, combining a solid spruce top with the company\u2019s deep Lyrachord composite bowl for strong low-end support and clear mids. The multi-piece mahogany\/maple neck with ebony fingerboard, 25-1\/4″ scale, and 1-7\/8″ nut combined with teh at the time unprecedented ability to play amplified at stage volumes made it a natural for classical crossovers, fingerstylists, and singers.<\/p>\n
