Ok I thought I knew the answer that all USA made Ovations (with the exception of the carbon fiber top Adamas) had solid tops.

I have searched high and low on the web for an answer in my search to buy my first USA Ovation but cant find a definative anaswer or list of what is solid or not.

newbie question I guess but cant seem to find an answer...

There were a few unusual Collectors guitars with non-solid tops (the ornate wood they used to get a beautiful effect was not capable of holding the tension by itself). But, for practical purposes, the answer is "Yes".

When it doubt, you always should just ask the OFC.

And the panelmasters are still darn fine instruments!
