Ovation / Manufactured circa 1977–1978 1627-4 GLEN CAMPBELL
The late 1960s. Glen Campbell enjoyed overwhelming popularity in the American country music scene.Designed specifically for him, this model was born as Ovation’s first signature model andbecame the embodiment of what a truly reliable instrument for professionals should be.
The top is crafted from carefully selected spruce.
It responds sensitively to even the most delicate picking, producing a bright and clear tone.
And its most distinctive feature is the sides and back—a shallow-bowl construction utilizing the proprietary synthetic material “Lyracord.”
This design maintains rich mid-to-low frequencies while achieving overwhelming durability and tonal consistency not found in conventional acoustic guitars.
Resistant to changes in humidity and temperature, it is a guitar that can “hold its own” for touring musicians traveling across the country.
And the electronics powered by the built-in piezo pickup truly shine on stage and in the recording studio.
It delivers a well-defined sound despite being an acoustic guitar. It won’t get lost in an ensemble, yet it has a softness that doesn’t pierce the ears.
It is truly the epitome of a "guitar built for live performance," embodying the Ovation sound known for its ability to project sound forward.
The neck features a 5-piece mahogany and maple construction for enhanced rigidity, with an ebony fingerboard.
It balances high playability with clear sustain, faithfully responding to the player’s intent from chord strums to delicate fingerpicking.
Every aspect of its construction is designed to never hinder the player’s expression, embodying a “musician-first” design philosophy.
You’ll feel your sound reaching the audience more directly than ever before.
The thrill of your sound stepping forward in the band.
Just as Glen Campbell did, the guitar chosen by someone who believed wholeheartedly in “his own music” continues to uphold that essence to this day.
