1982 France 2 pages

A French-language guitar review ('banc d'essai') of the Ovation UK 8 (Ultra Kaman), covering its construction, tonewoods, neck, electronics, and sound characteristics. The review discusses the guitar's synthetic urелite body, mahogany neck with 24-fret ebony fretboard, dual humbucking pickups, and gold hardware. The article concludes that the Ultra Kaman is an excellent guitar with good quality and honorable output power, noting its advantages over traditional wood guitars in terms of temperature stability.
