While it is to eatly to tell how durable the ce44-5 is, just picking up this guitar exudes quality (regardless of chinese craftsmanship inconsistencies). It came tuned in D which was a nice touch as far as keping the strings and neck ready to tune up to standard or alternate tunings. D'addario light strings, relatively low action, and excellent sound projection are key points to this design... and, somehow, they managed to add enough texture to the composite back to keep it from sliding off your leg! I've been playing this thing to the point of sore fingers and still can't believe how well it sounds. I'm 6'1" and have fairly large hands. The mid-sized 10" radius fretboard is very nimble and stretching for odd progression is easier than larger necks. It's a 50/50 between chords and picking... and this guitar strikes a great balance. Plugged in is where this really shines. The built in tuner , gain, and EQ are of above average quality. I've recorded with ovations in the past and find their electric tone less overly bass resonant. They are easy to mix with and require less jive on the mixboard. The convenient size, excellent build quality, beautiful looks, and excellent sound make for a guitar than ANYONE would be proud to own and share with others. Review: As Advertised, Sounds Great - This Ovation is what I expected. It arrived in very good shape. I will only point out a couple of minor issues. The "wings are an overlay, not inlay and there were wood burrs on the cutouts like someone did not do a quick sanding to remove them. No problem, they will wear off soon. The strings are thicker than i like so I will be changing them, but I am not sure how that will affect tone. I arrived about 1 note out of tune on each string which means they tune and stretch before boxing which is fine if the guitar is not sitting for long, otherwise it could warp the neck so check that when you get out of box. Mine needed only a little set up and the tone is just as expected, clear, bright and full which is an Ovation standard. This is a good guitar as an upgrade for a beginner or if you are taking it on the road. The equalizer does enhance the electronic sound but I don't like the plug hole being on the lower back. It gets in the way when you are using with an amp. You may want to use an L-shapes cord end instead of straight. Overall, I recommend. If you can, try it in a store first. The price is about the same everywhere. I ordered mine from desertcart for convenience mostly. ## Features - Classic mid-depth Lyrachord cutaway body with a solid spruce top featuring the Elite multi sound hole design, which provides clear highs and focused, balanced bass response - Remarkable new scalloped "X" bracing design that borrows from the past and is voiced for the present, with natural tone and optimal response and power - Together, body, top and sound holes create the classic Ovation Elite sound, resonating with full projection, remarkable note clarity and balance, and nuanced tonal complexity - The top also has elegant multi-wood epaulets, black binding and a beautiful gloss Black finish - For great live sound, the CE44-5 features an Ovation Slim line pickup and OP-4BT preamp system with three-band EQ, volume/gain control, onboard tuner and low-battery light ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00HT5H7TG | | Back Material Type | Fiberglass | | Best Sellers Rank | #75,028 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #232 in Acoustic-Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Fiberglass | | Body Material Type | Fiberglass | | Brand | OVATION | | Brand Name | OVATION | | Color | Black | | Connector Type | 1/4 inch jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 73 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00736021414167 | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | S | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Included Components | not included | | Instrument | Guitar | | Instrument Size | 42.3 inches | | Item Dimensions | 42.3 x 19.5 x 6.5 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 42.3"L x 19.5"W x 6.5"H | | Item Weight | 7.8 pounds | | Manufacturer | Ovation Guitars | | Manufacturer Part Number | CE44-5 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | CE44-5 | | Model Number | CE44-5 | | Neck Material Type | Mora | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 25.25 inches | | Sound Profile | Bright, Balanced, Focused Bass | | String Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 736021414167 805232475424 779177515999 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Limited lifetime.

I have several Ovations in the higher end price bracket but this guitar was a surprise in the tone play ability fit and finish and intonation is perfect, it has the same feel as my $1500 ovation, The only change I made was to lower the action by removing two shims from the bridge which took all of ten minutes, this really made a huge difference in the play ability and feel. I received the guitar within a week of ordering it and although it doesn't come with a case it was packaged well and had no damage. A case can be bought for $150 or so. This would make a great beach guitar or beginners guitar as well I have been playing for over 40 years and enjoy playing this guitar a lot. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ovation CE44-5 Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Black - CAHAYA 41 In Acoustic Guitar Bag 0.35 In Thick Padding Water Resistent Dual Adjustable Shoulder Strap Guitar Case Gig Bag with Back Hanger Loop, Black CY0152 - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/7866722-ovation-ce44-5-acoustic-electric-guitar-black](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/7866722-ovation-ce44-5-acoustic-electric-guitar-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-04*
