Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: A minor dent on the neck was filled, color-matched and refinished.
The Ovation Viper offers a distinctive take on the classic electric guitar, combining a comfortable single-cutaway design with a bright, articulate voice. Its alder body and one-piece Rock Maple neck provide a straightforward, resonant foundation, while the maple fingerboard and 24 nickel-silver frets create a smooth playing surface. Two single-coil pickups, featuring Alnico magnets in the neck and angled magnets at the bridge, deliver plenty of clarity and character, with a three-way selector and traditional Volume and Tone controls keeping things simple. An adjustable tailpiece and enclosed Schaller tuners provide dependable tuning and setup flexibility, while the fully adjustable bridge helps dial in a comfortable playing feel. Finished with chrome hardware and weighing 8 lbs. 1 oz., this Viper comes with its Ovation hardshell case and offers a characterful alternative for players drawn to vintage-inspired designs.
