Ovation Celebrity CS-247 Quilted Maple Electro Acoustic Guitar, Trans Red (pre-owned)

Crafted for clarity, designed to inspire.

Few electro-acoustic guitars offer the blend of comfort, tone and modern flair quite like the Ovation Celebrity CS‑247 and this Transparent Red example brings that combination to life with striking visual impact. The Lyrachord® bowl-back design, signature to Ovation, delivers focused projection and crisp articulation, while the solid spruce top adds clarity, warmth and responsive resonance. Bound rosewood fingerboard and carefully carved neck provide both playability and elegance, letting every chord and note feel effortless. The onboard piezo electronics and Thinline under-saddle pickup ensure that your sound translates perfectly whether plugged into a stage amp or a home recording setup, giving you a versatile platform for any style or situation.

This guitar shows no fret wear, though pitting on the fingerboard suggests it has been professionally re-fretted, preserving playability for years to come. There are a few light handling marks, but nothing detracts from the guitar’s vibrant finish or responsive tone. Overall, it is in great condition, ready to inspire both practice and performance. Combining iconic Ovation design, reliable electronics and eye-catching style, this CS‑247 is a fine example of an acoustic-electric that delivers both in looks and in sound.
