Ovation Viper and Preacher Electric Guitars Introduction Brochure

1970s US 6 pages

This brochure introduces two new solid body electric guitar models from Ovation: the Viper and the Preacher. Both guitars feature innovative pickup designs and represent Ovation's entry into solid body electrics, departing from their traditional acoustic designs. The Viper includes specially designed high-output pickups with extra windings, while the Preacher features double-coil humbucking pickups that are 20db quieter than traditional humbuckers. Thanks a lot Karl for these pictures
