Ovation lx vs ax6/2/2023 Binding this all together is the five-piece mahogany neck, that is satin-finished to provide a beautiful feel in the hands. This body features a generous cutaway to allow good access to all 22 frets of the rosewood fretboard, which slants from the 17th fret on the bass side. As for the back and sides, the Elite Standard sports Ovation’s ergonomically designed Lyrachord mid-depth bowl – what you lack in traditional wood you make up for in comfort and output. The top is made from AA Solid Spruce with quarter sawn scalloped X bracing, and finished in a classy black gloss (although you can also find both white and sunburst models on some marketplaces).

From the American brand’s Elite series, the Standard 2778 AX makes use of all Ovation’s trademark appointments, resulting in a pretty great instrument.
