(RANKED ON FOUR FACTORS)
They’re not new to you. Ovation Celebrity Guitar is well-known for their signature “molded body”. Ovation is a guitar company that has made a name for itself in the world of guitars, no matter how much you love it. Celebrity is an entry to mid-level line that can be a great option for anyone looking to try a new brand. This purchase can make or break a manufacturer’s experience.
But if you’re new to Ovation guitars and the Celebrity is your first, you won’t be disappointed. My personal experience with the acoustic guitar has been over 25 years. I am excited to share my opinion on the celebrity lin dan line. I will also be reviewing the various Celebrity lines of guitars and helping you choose the right one for you.
REVIEW OF OVATION CELEBRITY GUITAR
If you’re looking for an affordable acoustic-electric guitarist, the Ovation Celebrity guitar is a good choice. It is an entry-level guitar at a mid-range price. However, it is constructed to a high standard with quality electronics and materials. The celebrity product is a great choice for anyone who wants to add an Ovation to their collection or an acoustic electric to it.
MY VERDICT (& Personal Favourite)
The Celebrity Standard Exotic Flamed Koa is my personal favorite. It’s the guitar that I use regularly, both live and unplugged. The punch of the Koa Wood is a great choice for me as a more melodic, lead guitarist.
It cost me about $500, which was a huge investment in hindsight. The sound techs that I work with consistently compliment me. This is one of my best purchases. Although I don’t necessarily love Ovation guitars, I do love this guitar.

- CONSTRUCTION
The tedesco celebrity Standard’s body is described as a middle-depth. This refers to the depth of Ovation’s signature bowl back. A mid-depth bowl has full projection and resonance, with a tone that is similar to an acoustic of typical construction.
There are two types of bowls available for the Standard Exotic models. Super Shallow bodies are slightly less deep and have a lower bottom end. However, they are more comfortable to hold, especially when standing. For overall tone, the mid-depth is the preferred style. However, the Ovation celebrity blogs with a shallow body are great for easy playing.
