A Stellar Acoustic-electric Bass from Ovation

Guitarists have enjoyed the Ovation experience for decades. Now, thanks to the Celebrity Elite Plus CEB44-1N, bassists can get in on the action. This 4-string acoustic-electric bass guitar boasts a comfortable mid-depth design, combining Ovation’s acclaimed Lyrachord body with a toneful solid spruce top. A mahogany neck with an ovangkol fingerboard provide impeccable response and playability, and the deep cutaway gives you access to those higher notes up the neck. When you plug in, an Ovation OP-4CT preamp with an OCP100 pickup featuring a 3-band EQ kicks out gorgeous amplified tone. If you want to be heard onstage, the Ovation Celebrity Elite Plus CEB44-1N is the right acoustic bass for you.

One-of-a-kind feel and tone

The mid-depth design of the CEB44-1N translates to an incredibly comfortable playing experience whether you stand or sit. And the contoured back of the Lyrachord design also ensures that this beauty never feels anything less than stellar strapped over your shoulder or resting in your lap. The Lyrachord body is a durable, lightweight alternative to wood backs, and it has a smooth interior surface that is specifically designed to enhance the reflections inside your instrument as well. And the traditional laser-cut epaulets on the solid spruce top add to the unique appearance and sonically provide remarkable note clarity.

Onboard OP-4CT preamp

Ovation wrote the book on live acoustic instruments. They were the first company to introduce pickups and preamplifiers in the acoustic guitar, essentially inventing a new instrument. And now, with the CEB44-1N, they’ve applied their decades of innovation to the acoustic bass. The Celebrity Elite Plus is equipped with an OP-4CT preamp that has a powerful 3-band EQ for easy sound shaping. In addition, the onboard tuner makes it easy to stay in tune. Ask any bassist here at Sweetwater: the OP-4CT gives you the tonal control you need onstage.
