Description
This 1978 Ovation Viper III features a solidbody design finished in distinctive Grey Burst, paired with an ebony fingerboard and comfortable C-shaped neck. Equipped with two original Ovation pickups and simple volume and tone controls, it delivers a versatile range of punchy, articulate tones with plenty of vintage character. A unique example of Ovation's late-'70s electric guitar designs.

This example is in fair used condition with a repaired crack near the neck joint, non-original tone pot, output jack, and control knobs, along with one replacement tuner. Weighs 8.2 lbs and includes a gig bag.
