The Applause E-Acoustic Guitar AE44-5S, Black Satin is that guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"vmi-benefit-bar\"\u003eFree shipping · Free local pickup in Miami · Financing at checkout\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Multi-Soundhole Top\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of one round hole in the middle of the soundboard, the AE44 places a cluster of soundholes on the bass-side upper bout. Moving the openings off the center of the top leaves more unbroken soundboard where the strings drive it hardest, and it is the visual signature of Ovation's upper lines brought down to Applause. Underneath, a selected spruce top with scalloped, quartersawn X-bracing sits on a mid-depth cutaway Lyrachord bowl, the one-piece composite shell that resists weather and wear no wooden body can match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSound and Electronics\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mid-depth bowl gives the AE44 a full, balanced acoustic voice with the focused projection the roundback is known for, and the repositioned soundholes aim a surprising amount of that sound up at the player. The CE304T preamp with three-band EQ and built-in tuner handles the stage: shape the tone at the guitar, tune between songs without a pedal, plug into any PA or interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlayability\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 642mm scale and 42.8mm nut on a nato neck, ovangkol fingerboard and bridge, and diecast Ovation machine heads in black chrome.
