A resonant acoustic-electric guitar with gorgeous looks and amplified versatility.
The Ovation CE48P Celebrity Series Elite Plus brings players a resonant, lightweight acoustic-electric guitar with professional features at an affordable price. Designed for musicians seeking rich tone and effortless playability, the CE48P Elite Plus has a curvaceous figured top that produces shimmering highs, warm lows and impressive projection. The Super Shallow composite Lyrachord body is lightweight yet durable, with a smooth satin finish that's comfortable against your body. The Nato neck and ovangkol fingerboard provide a fast, playable feel whether strumming chords or playing intricate solos. With its OP-4CT preamp and Ovation Slimline pickup, the CE48P Elite Plus delivers plugged-in performance for any gig.
Super Shallow Body Reduces Weight
While the koa top provides acoustic warmth and projection, the Super Shallow Lyrachord composite body keeps the CE48P Elite Plus lightweight for comfortable playability. Lyrachord has the strength and tonal qualities of wood with only a fraction of the density. The body's rounded contours nestle against your body and its satin finish glides smoothly under your forearm. Whether practicing for hours or performing all night, the Super Shallow body helps prevent fatigue so you can focus on making music.
Fast Neck and OP-4CT Preamp Expand Versatility
The Nato neck and ovangkol fingerboard give the CE48P Elite Plus a slick, playable feel for both chords and solos. The neck has a streamlined profile that fits comfortably in your hand, while the fingerboard has a smooth, polished surface. Dot inlays provide visual position markers without disrupting the neck's sleek contour. The onboard Ovation OP-4CT preamp and Ovation Slimline pickup let you plug in for gigs, recording and more. With simple controls for volume, bass, mid, treble and presence, you can shape your tone to suit any musical situation. For acoustic-electric performance and versatility at an affordable price, the CE48P Elite Plus is an compelling choice.
Premium Appointments Complete the Package
From the die-cast Ovation tuners to the natural satin finish, premium details abound on this guitar. Abalone dot inlays grace the ovangkol fingerboard for a stylish look. Multi-wood epaulets, ivory body binding and multi-part purfling provide attractive accents. A pleasure to see and hear, the Ovation CE48P Celebrity Series Elite Plus is an instrument you'll love playing for years to come.
