I recently bought my second Ovation (Standard Balladeer 2771AX-CCB from Korea) and really like it.
It is a project now rather than a complete guitar, but playable an mechanically complete.
I will have to search for parts to make it the stage player I was looking for. I guess Shadow SH 066-9 will be a good choice to rebuild the piezo, not sure iDea or OP-Pro (which initially had been installed) or OP30 will make it to the preamp section, depending on how succeful my efforts to get a fitting can will be, I would like the OP30, if noone is going to warn me :-), just because it is lighter and less extrudent than the OP-Pro.
My other Ovation is a black 73 Breadwinner, quite a heavy load on my shoulders, but an excellent sounding player. |

... seems, a member of this community will be my supplier for a OP-Pro can, which pushes me further into the Pro direction. Any idea what is happening to the XLR/balanced/phantom power connector in the 2771AX-CCB ?? There doen't seem to be a xlr connector originally installed ... |

Location: Sydney, Australia | The Op-Pro Studio has the XLR connector, the standard Op-Pro doesn't. If you want XLR, then you need to go for the Op-Pro Studio or VIP preamps. Alternatively, you can buy a little box that converts the unbalanced signal to balanced. |
