The instruments of the Ovation Celebrity Elite series are something special, both for the eyes and the ears.
They feature Ovation's signature Multi Soundholes. This innovative construction uses several small openings at the edge of the guitar top instead of a single, central soundhole.
This has two positive effects: firstly, the available vibration surface in the centre of the soundboard is increased, and secondly, the sound comes out much closer to the ear of the person playing.
In addition, the Multi Soundholes are visually enriching and are a guaranteed eye-catcher on stage.

The Ovation Celebrity Traditional models are – quite traditionally – equipped with a center soundhole. This is also the essential difference to the Celebrity Elite models, which rely on the Ovation-typical Multi Soundholes placed at the edge.
The right instruments for all those who want both a traditional look and the characteristic sound of a genuine Ovation roundback guitar.

Ovation Celebrity Elite Plus models are special in every way.
The literal plus are the tops, which are made of visually appealing woods such as spalted/flamed/quilted maple or koa.

A high standard.
The Ovation® Balladeer series is ideal for all those who are looking for a workhorse for stage and studio in the mid-price segment, but who do not want to go without an appealing appearance or sophisticated technical features.
The instruments owe their appealing acoustic sound to their solid spruce top (A-grade), which has a scalloped X-bracing – a wooden construction arranged crosswise – on the underside. All models in this series have a centersoundhole, i.e. a sound hole in the middle of the guitar top, which is framed by a discreet Pearl Oak Leaf rosette.
Equally discreet dot/diamond inlays are found in the five-piece mahogany/maple neck, which is particularly stable and torsionally strong due to its construction.
The Deep Contour Lyrachord® body in the weight-reduced GS version delivers increased volume with easy handling.
But what would an Ovation be without the typical electro-acoustic sound via amp or PA?
An OCP1K pickup with extra-large piezo crystals picks up the vibrations, not only from the strings, but also from the top.
For further processing of the signal, an OP-Pro preamp is used in this model series.
The guitars are delivered without a case. We recommend an Ovation 8158K-0 ABS case to anyone who wants to take this instrument on tour.

One of the many stories about this guitar series tells of how Linda McCartney wanted to give her husband Paul an Ovation guitar for Christmas because he thought it was so great. In the end, an Ovation Legend ended up under the Christmas tree... in the left-handed version, of course.
When Ovation developed the Legend series, they were looking for a special sound concept that would enable the guitars to not lose energy in any frequency range. Full basses, clear trebles and strong mids.
A harmonious body – a tuned body
As with all Ovation guitars, the hand-selected wood top is applied to a Lyrychord® bowl. Since Lyrachord® resonates at a clearly defined frequency, the top could be designed to resonate at a complementary frequency. The result is a "tuned" guitar body that produces a full, smooth sound.
An A for an X.
Most high-quality Ovation guitars use cross-braced reinforcing braces called "X-bracing" to stabilise the top. To better support the material's ability to vibrate, the reinforcements on the Ovation Legend Series are placed in an A-shapealong the grain of the wood. This "A-Bracing"
significantly improves resonance in the mid and bass ranges and contributes to a balanced sound across all frequencies.
Ovation Legend – it’s one of a kind.

Ovation Elite models are special, both for the eyes and the ears.
They dispense with the classic sound hole in the middle of the top in favour of several smaller openings at the edge of the guitar, called Multi Soundholes. This special construction has two positive effects: firstly, it increases the available vibration surface in the centre of the soundboard, and secondly, the sound comes out much closer to the ear of the person playing.
Visually, the Multi Soundholes are unique in themselves. Some models are additionally decorated with elegant epaulettes. A guaranteed eye-catcher on all stages.
Another contributor towards the appealing acoustic sound of these instruments are their high-quality spruce tops made of grade A woods.

The instruments of the Elite TX series are particularly unique, and it is no coincidence that they are very popular in the rock and metal scene. Those who are used to playing electric guitars especially benefit enormously from features like the maple neck, which not only stands for a fast response and good sustain, but is also equipped with a flat neck profile for optimal playability.
As an added bonus, all TX models are finished in a beautiful, genre-matching Black Textured finish.
The Elite TX Series range includes guitars of various body depths and scales. Among them are both 6- and 12-string models, as well as a 4-string bass.
The guitars are delivered without a case. For those who want to take their instrument on tour, we recommend an Ovation 8158K-0 ABS case for Deep Contour and Mid Depth models, an Ovation 8117K-0 ABS case for Super Shallow models and for the bass, the Ovation MC-4 case.

Între 1983 și 1994, modelele Ovation Ultra au fost deja produse ca versiuni Cutaway și non-Cutaway într-o mare varietate de culori, finisaje și adâncimi a spatelui. Noua ediție a acestei serii de modele este special concepută pentru cântăreți-compozitori. Datorită spatelui cu adâncime medie/non-cutaway, chitara se potrivește adecvat aproape de corp și, prin urmare, oferă o senzație de utilizare confortabila.
Preamplificatorul K-21CT nou dezvoltat oferă un sunet de bază clar structurat, cu medii definite și o bună separare a corzilor. Concepția sunetului permite chitarei să se afirme excelent în interacțiunea cu alte instrumente și să se distingă cu ușurință în imaginea sonoră generală a unei trupe.
Pickup-ul OCP-2000 este o altă inovație Ovation care intră în uz pentru chitarele Ultra; o formulare îmbunătățită a materialului piezo, o plasare mai precisă a elementelor piezo și un nou amestec de materiale cu conținut crescut de sticlă pentru suportul corzii reduc uzura, asigură o transmisie mai bună a vibrațiilor elementelor piezo și are ca rezultat o putere crescută.
Pe lângă asta, sunetul acustic pur al Ultra este impresionant. Placile de sunet de molid de calitate A provin din Germania și sunt tratate termic, ceea ce simulează aproximativ 15 ani în schimbarea anotimpurilor și creează un sunet matur, echilibrat al unei plăci de sunet bine repetate. Lacul UV utilizat este extrem de prietenos cu mediul, deoarece aproape că nu conține deloc agenți reducători și poate fi aplicat ultra-subțire. Un strat subțire corespunzător de lac încetinește semnificativ mai puțin comportamentul la vibrații al plăcii de sunet, ceea ce, la rândul său, aduce beneficii audibile sunetului.
Toate modelele Ultra vin cu o husa căptușită, rezistenta, cu captuseala de 20 mm.
