Description
Ovation changed the acoustic guitar world back in 1966 when engineer Charlie Kaman swapped the traditional wood body for a parabolic Lyrachord bowl, a material he’d first developed for helicopter parts. The result was a guitar with noticeably more projection and sustain than conventional flat-tops, and it wasn’t long before Ovation pushed amplification forward too, pioneering undersaddle piezo pickups followed by built-in preamps, EQs, and tuners.
That pedigree runs through the Celebrity Traditional Plus CS24P-FKOA. It carries the same distinctive rounded-back design that made Ovation famous, paired with a figured koa top that adds visual character along with its own tonal warmth. A mid-depth body and cutaway shape keep the guitar comfortable in the lap while giving your fretting hand clear access to the upper frets, making it a practical choice whether you’re strumming through a set or reaching for lead lines.
Ovation instruments have found favor across genres and skill levels, from Glen Campbell’s country picking to the technical fireworks of players like Yngwie Malmsteen, Al Di Meola, and Kaki King. The Celebrity line was built to bring that same playability and stage-ready electronics into a more accessible instrument, and the CS24P-FKOA continues that tradition.
