Ovation Preacher Stereo Guitar Advertisement - Rolling Stone, May 3, 1979

1979 US

This is a single-page advertisement for the Ovation Preacher solid body electric guitar, published in Rolling Stone magazine on May 3, 1979. The ad highlights the Preacher's stereo capability via a mono/stereo output jack that splits pickup output to two amplifiers or both channels of a single amp, featuring double coil pickups and a wide tonal range. Ovation, a Kaman Company, positioned the Preacher as the first solid body electric guitar to make stereo a reality, with preset volume, tone, reverb, and tremolo on each channel.
