It looks more Hamer than Ovation.
...I'm suprised they didn't have it good to go for winter NAMM I know. That is strange.
Maybe... just maybe..The Guitar Center mucky-mucks said they would do extensive premier / promotion work IF they were given an exclusive. |

"Taylor retail divided by 2 = comparable Ovation out the door."
I'm bettin' around $1300. |

Location: Upper Left USA | I am curious to see how much it has in common with my Mahogany Viper Project ?
Except that the VXT will be clean, well finished and executed.
Consider it a Viper Level III. |

Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands | This is cool, it's like blind men trying to describe an elephant ... ok, this blind man takes a turn:
It sounds to me like a semi-hollow mahogany body with an acoustic pick-up, plus the two humbuckers and a blender knob. |

I understand that VXT was not the first name they chose for this guitar. They wanted to call it FRG, as in Fooking Radical Guitar, but they thought the name would just lead to confusion.

-------------------------------------------------
What does VXT stand for?
Variable cross tone.
What does that mean?
The VXT allows seamless blending of acoustic and electric sounds with the turn of a knob. From all acoustic to all electric and some amazing blends in between that create a whole new sound.
-------------------------------------------------
I'm not seeing the typical acoustic pickup from the CT crew ala the Viper or Duotone. It looks to be something like the Baggs X-Bridge or the Graph Tech acoustic saddles. |
