Ovation K1111-4 Reissue Standard Balladeer Guitar Test German Review

2006 Germany 2 pages

A two-page German-language test review of the Ovation K1111-4 Standard Balladeer acoustic guitar, published in Gitarre & Bass magazine (issue 03/2006). The article covers the guitar's history dating back to the original 1966 Ovation Balladeer, its construction details including the fiberglass bowl back and spruce top, and provides a practical playing assessment. The review celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Ovation brand and concludes with a positive assessment of the guitar's transparency, balance, volume, and historical significance. Many thanks to my friend Karl in Germany for this document (Excerpt from "Guitarre & Bass" magazine issue / March, 2006)
