collapse expand iconDescription

The Ovation CS28P-KOAB-G Celebrity Series Traditional Plus gives you acclaimed Ovation tone and playability at an affordable price. With its super-shallow Lyrachord composite body, quilted maple top and scalloped X-bracing, this acoustic-electric guitar delivers a balanced sound with rich projection and a beautiful aesthetic. The ovangkol fingerboard and bridge provide smooth playability, while the elegant wood top gives it a stylish appearance.

Iconic Ovation Roundback Shape

The Celebrity Series' round Lyrachord body has been Ovation's hallmark for decades. This lightweight, durable composite material allows the compact body to resonate freely, producing full, balanced tone. Its super-shallow depth fits comfortably against your body, making this an ideal guitar for long practice or performance sessions. The ovangkol fingerboard and bridge give you a familiar feel under your fingers.

Scalloped X-Bracing Enhances Projection

The Celebrity Series' top features scalloped X-bracing, a construction technique that allows the top to vibrate freely. This results in a broad dynamic range and rich, balanced sound with full projection. The selected wood top gives this guitar a stylish appearance and contributes to its resonant, singing tone.

OP-4CT Preamp Provides Full Control

Ovation's OP-4CT preamp gives you complete control over your amplified tone. It features bass, mid and treble controls as well as a built-in tuner. You get full, natural tone when playing acoustically and the preamp allows you to shape your sound for any musical situation. The preamp's tuner ensures you're always in tune for optimal tone and playability.

High-Quality Components

This Ovation guitar features a nato neck, ovangkol fingerboard and bridge for warm, balanced tone. The maple binding, abalone rosette and dot inlays provide an elegant aesthetic. Premium die-cast Ovation tuners keep your guitar in tune through any performance. Together, these professional-grade components give the CS28P-KOAB-G exceptional playability and tone at its price point.

    fromPortland, OR

    I was in the Portland Guitar Center store picking up some gear and tried out this Ovation. I have an Ovation I purchased in 1982 and after thousands of hours of playing Jim Croche, Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor and Bob Dylon songs I had it refretted. It plays like new. Ovations are rugged guitars that hold a tune and deliver a rich sound. This little CS28P played really well for the price. It sounds good for its size and is easy to handle. This is a good starter for a young player who can't afford a Martin or Yamaha trans acoustic. I might buy one for my grandkids.
