New Wood, Vintage Tone

Roasting spruce speeds up its natural aging process, delivering a played-in, old-school tone. This torrefaction process removes excess moisture, making the guitar more resistant to overall atmospheric changes—perfect for tonal consistency.

The Golden Age

With retro charm and a contemporary build, the Highland Collection captures a timelessness that never goes out of style. From the Grover open-gear tuners to the herringbone details, every element is crafted with care.

Set Up in Los Angeles

Professionally set up before shipping, your guitar arrives ready to play—with fresh strings and a durable hard case included.

Studio Mic’d Sound

The LR Baggs Anthem is an all-in-one pickup system that combines a mic and undersaddle piezo with remarkable noise cancellation for performance-ready warmth and fidelity.

You Won’t Find A Better Guitar For The Price

I’ve been playing the Ava Live for about 4 years now, and have nothing negative to say about the guitar. The build is rock solid and feels like a made in USA guitar. It arrived perfectly set up to my liking, and ready to be gigged with. I’m a full time musician and the LR Baggs Anthem is one of the best pickups around at the moment. I couldn’t be happier with this guitar and recommend Orangewood to everybody I know, whether they’re a beginner or a master. I truly think this is the best guitar I’ve ever played for the money. I own a Martin D28 and 0018, and these guitars ARE comparable. And for less than half the price, you cannot go wrong with Orangewood and the Ava Live.

Ava Live

A keeper

The ava ts live is a keeper. It's comfortable very playable and it has a lovely tone that will only improve with the material it's made from. I'm happy with it and soon plan to purchase another orangewood.

Better Than Expected!

I have been skeptically contemplating an Orangewood guitar for about a year now. After reading and watching multiple reviews, I finally decided to pull the trigger. As advertised, the guitar arrived on time and the set up was perfect. It's playable right out of the box and in my opinion, holds its own with my rather expensive Martin. I was looking for something a little smaller (body wise) but still wanted great tone. The Ava Torrefied Spruce Live delivers on every front. Well Done Orangewood!

Thanks for your review Mike! We're thrilled to hear that you took a chance and that you're enjoying your Ava Live!

Absolutely fantastic guitar. Use it for practicing at work but I think I’ll track it too. Haven’t tried plugged in yet, but I’ll find out soon. The craziest part is that it actually arrived in tune
