Location: SoCal | welcome...see the search option above - I put in 1139 and there were 16 "hits"
One of them had:
"Ovation wrote me that this had a Balladeer body and "Matrix" type neck--foam construction, though it has a rosewood fingerboard."
Several posts stated that there appeared to be a hole for a truss rod, but no truss rod.
Basically a hybrid Matrix. The O site shows (for the 1137):
