I have had a 12 string Ovation CS255 for a while now, and have been learning on a 6 string Ovation "knock off". I like the super shallow bowl my 12 string has and will most likely be buying a 6868AX model in the near future. I tried playing a contour bowl model, and while I liked it, I am not sure I liked it more than the super shallow bowl guitar. I was going to get a less expensive model, but I wanted to get a solid top. The deeper bowls are not as comfortable for me as my arms are not long enough.

Does this thought process make sense?

Well, that is a little about me. I am sure I will have more questions as time goes on.

Dave

Hi Dave,
What ever process works for you. As long as you like the way it plays and sounds, then go for it. I've always preferred the deep bowl, but there are lots of fans of the shallow bowl.

Welcome Dave... You are now free to move about the cabin as they say... (you have access to post on the rest of the site).

If yore looking for a rich deep acoustic tone, a shallow bowl will disappoint. If you're plugging in, there's little difference.
