The Ovation CE-44-RBB-G Celebrity Elite acoustic guitar convinces not only with its extremely pleasant handling but also with a powerful and warm sound and comprehensive functionality. At the same time, the characteristic headstock and the multi-soundhole with multi-hardwood epaulette provide the individual appearance that has been popular with musicians all over the world for decades. In addition, the instrument is extremely easy to play, which is due not least to the flat neck and the generous cutaway. The extensive pickup system also allows for professional performance on stage and conveniently includes an integrated tuner. The instrument is rounded off by a noble matt varnish with reversed blueburst finish.

Construction and woods

Thanks to its solid spruce top, both the mid and treble frequencies are reproduced with great clarity and definition. Meanwhile, the Lyrachord body with mid-depth arching fills the sound with pleasant and wide-ranging basses. Meanwhile, the Nato neck guarantees an easy grip on all 20 frets, which are set into an Ovangkol fingerboard.

Hardware and Design

To ensure that the Ovation CE-44-RBB-G Celebrity Elite guitar intonates cleanly throughout its 643 mm scale length, the 42.8 mm wide nut and saddle are matched with millimeter precision. Oil encapsulated tuners guarantee at the same time a precise tuning of the 6 steel strings, which are fixed in an Ovangkol bridge. The top is bordered by a multi-ply binding, which harmonizes very tastefully with the wooden leaf ornaments and the dot inlays in the fretboard.
