A revolutionary carbon fiber guitar engineered for unrivaled tone, resilience and stage-ready power.
The Ovation U581T-SPM-G Adamas Series Deep Contour acoustic-electric guitar provides an unparalleled playing experience. With a carbon fiber and birch top and Lyrachord bowl, this guitar offers a dynamic sound with shimmering highs and a thunderous low end. The Adamas X Bracing further enhances projection and tonal complexity. Whether fingerpicking or strumming, this guitar delivers a perfectly balanced response.
Ultra-Thin Top Provides Astounding Resonance
The Adamas Series is renowned for its ultra-thin, sandwich-constructed top. Composed of carbon fiber and birch, this top produces a wider dynamic range and greater volume than typically possible with wood alone. The result is an instrument with tremendous resonance that rings out clearly in any environment. The unidirectional carbon fiber also provides exceptional stability, keeping the top rigid and preventing warping.
Mid-Depth Bowl Offers Comfort and Warmth
The hand-laid Lyrachord bowl provides a mid-depth body that is comfortable to hold and play. Lyrachord, a composite of wood fibers and epoxy resins, has a warm, woody tone with natural resonance. The bowl's shape focuses the instrument's sound forward, projecting each note clearly. Its smooth contours naturally rest against your body, facilitating long playing sessions.
Sleek Playability and Style
You'll love the feel of the U581T-SPM-G's walnut neck and smooth ebony fingerboard. Its slim, fast profile with a 10" radius gives you effortless control along the 25.25" scale length. The bone nut, iDea pinless bridge and Schaller machine heads with ebony buttons also contribute to comfortable playability. Visually, the black textured finish with copper metal flake binding and abalone rosette provide an attractive complement to the premium tonewoods.
Plug in and Shape Your Sound
The U581T-SPM-G comes equipped with an active preamp and undersaddle pickup to amplify your acoustic tone. You can blend the pickup signal with the natural resonance to achieve your optimal amplified sound. A direct output also provides a line-level signal to connect directly to a PA system or audio interface. Between its acoustic properties and electronics, this guitar offers full tonal versatility for any musical context.
