I've been getting contradicting info regarding this, so I've come to the experts: The doubleneck Celebrity Ovations--can one have both USTs switched on at the same time?
Thank you.

I don't know, but I sure do think they're cool. This remains one of my favorite O videos on youtube. I love what one AGF member said when this was posted and someone remarked about the cool guitar in the video. "There was a guitar in that video?"

Bill X, any chance Ovation would consider producing a NH-made tobacco burst version of this someday?

I quick-looked for a video and found this one.
At 3:51 you can see him go from 6 to 12 without reaching for the switch...

And to the right, there are other Celebrity Double-necks that you can check-out.

I said all that to say that I think that they have a 3-way switch.

Thank you. I think you are (of course) correct. It looks to have three-way switch. Thank you very sincerely.

Another question: What's the opinion among OFC members regarding the OP24. (I have a guitar w/ the OP-Pro, and I have had other guitars with OP-30s, but I have never experienced the 24.) Thank you.

Are we talking about OP-24, or OP-24+?
Cuz most of the Celebrity Double-necks that I have seen have the OP-24+.

Either way... Both have good output and long battery life.
The OP-24 is a well-liked preamp with good sound and simple controls.
But the OP-24+ has a Pre-shape and Mid-shift button.

I like them both.

I'm pretty sure it's the Plus.

Thank you for the insight.
