Ovation CE4412 Celebrity Elite 12-String, Black - Secondhand

Full Description

Shimmering 12-string voice

The CE4412 Celebrity Elite 12-String builds its sound around a solid spruce top with scalloped, quartersawn X-bracing, giving a lively, articulate response and that unmistakable octave shimmer. Strummed parts bloom with rich harmonics, while arpeggios stay defined and musical. The bright fundamental is supported by a warm low end from the rounded body, so you get chime without harshness and depth without mud. It’s a confident, inspiring acoustic tone that lifts arrangements and fills space with ease

Multi soundhole projection

Ovation’s multi soundhole layout frees up more vibrating area in the centre of the top and routes the sound closer to your ear. You hear your dynamics more immediately, sustain feels longer, and the guitar responds quickly to both plectrum and fingerstyle work. Hardwood epaulettes frame the ports for a distinctive look, and the focused dispersion helps your sound to sit neatly in a mix. It’s a clever design that looks modern and genuinely improves real-world performance

Comfortable roundback feel

The mid-depth Lyrachord body keeps things light and comfortable, hugging close whether you're using a strap or playing seated. That moulded bowl resists feedback at stage volumes while still pushing supportive lows and present mids, so the guitar carries without becoming boomy. The 643 mm scale and 47.6 mm nut give a friendly balance of tension and space, making octave pairs feel manageable and barre shapes clean. It’s a dependable, gig-ready platform built for long sets

Stage-ready electronics

Plug in and go with the CP-100 Slimline pickup feeding the OP-4CT preamp for a natural, mix-friendly signal. Onboard 3-band EQ and a built-in tuner make quick tweaks simple mid-set, and the system tracks nuance from gentle textures to big strums. Chrome die-cast machine heads keep tuning steady across all twelve strings, while the ovangkol fingerboard and bridge add a smooth, responsive feel. This guitar is consistent, reliable and ready for the PA from the first chord
