I've never seen a label like that before, either. The "ovation" script is wrong, there's no trademark identifiers and marketing folk are very anal when it comes to branding. Counterfeit or something for the export market only???

Sticker says USA but the pinned (bolted) bridge,headstock shape,and two piece neck looks like an import! Nice tiger striped top(spruce??)
Could it be a panelmaster?

Did the label say "Made In U.S.A."???? I didn't see it. Celebs say New Hartford on their label, too, but they aren't made there!!! My guess it is a Celeb of some flavor.

Beautiful guitar, but the place where the saddle sits in the bridge looks off. Saddle looks too narrow for the slot in the bridge.

If it was a USA model, the serial number would put it at a 1992. The 1992 Collector's was based on an Elite, and they didn't usually have serial numbers, so it's not that. I'd guess it's a limited edition Celebrity.
