A Celebrity Designed for Stage and Comfort
The Celebrity series carries Ovation's DNA (Lyrachord back and central soundhole) in an accessible and pragmatic approach. This Standard Plus version favors smooth playing thanks to the Super Shallow body, while maintaining the brand's visual identity with its abalone details and Koa Burst finish.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
This electro-acoustic is aimed at serious beginners, intermediate players, and stage musicians who want a comfortable guitar that is easy to amplify and stable in real conditions. It suits pop, acoustic rock, folk, and pick accompaniment very well, while remaining comfortable with arpeggios thanks to its clear response.
The Sound
The Quilted Maple top delivers a rather bright and defined tonal signature, with clear string separation, ideal for precise rhythms. The profiled X bracing helps the top vibrate evenly, improving projection and responsiveness. The Super Shallow Lyrachord body, with its central soundhole, promotes a direct and controlled sound, very relevant when amplified: less bulk, a "close-to-you" playing feel, and reliable reproduction via the CP-100 Slimline pickup and OP-4CT preamp (with tuner), practical for moving from a living room to the stage without hassle.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To equip it safely, choose a 6.35 mm jack cable (for the preamp output) and a steel folk string set (light gauge, for example 12-53) suited to an electro-acoustic of this format.
