This futuristic offset solid-body was designed to balance comfortably and deliver a wide tonal palette for the adventurous player.
This guitar features an all-mahogany body, bolt-on mahogany neck, and an ebony fingerboard with pearl dots. Its dual humbuckers paired with Ovation’s onboard active electronics deliver a versatile tonal range—from rich, warm cleans to biting rock tones. Whether you’re chasing vintage quirk or searching for a dependable player with style, the Breadwinner delivers both sound and attitude in spades.
