A roundback design with balanced tone and built-in electronics.
The Ovation CE44 Celebrity Elite mid-depth acoustic-electric guitar provides serious musicians with iconic Ovation tone and playability at an affordable price. Its solid spruce top and scalloped X-bracing generate a balanced tone with shimmering highs and tight lows. The mid-depth Lyrachord body is lightweight yet resonant, with a rounded back that conforms comfortably to your body.
Iconic Ovation Roundback Design
Ovation's innovative roundback design has defined the brand for decades. On the CE44, it provides an ergonomic shape that's ideal for long practice sessions and all-day play. The roundback also enhances projection, allowing your tone to cut through when playing with other musicians. Visually, the roundback gives the CE44 a look that's uniquely Ovation.
Fast, Comfortable Neck
The CE44's nato neck has a fast, slim profile that plays as easily as your favorite electric guitar. Its ovangkol fingerboard has a smooth feel, with pearloid dot inlays for visual reference. A 25.5" scale length and 1.75" nut width provide comfortable spacing for chords and single-note runs. From open chords to intricate solos, the CE44's neck gives you the speed and comfort needed for any playing style.
Premium Pickups and Preamp for Plugged-in Performance
When you're ready to plug in, the CE44 delivers. Its Ovation Slimline pickup accurately captures the guitar's acoustic properties. The OP-4BT preamp provides simple controls for shaping your tone, including bass, mid and treble EQ. It also includes a built-in tuner to keep you in tune on stage or in the studio. With the CE44, you have an acoustic-electric guitar that's ready for any playing opportunity.
