Hey all. Long time lurker, first time poster. Anyhoo...

I picked up an Ovation Celebrity Deluxe five string bass, used, in 1997. I've been trying to find out some more about this bass but can't find anything even at the official Ovation website. I know it was made in Korea, but I can't even find a serial number.

Little help?

Thanks,

BH

It's an import copy of the Elite 5 string bass. I believe the model number is CC-275. The serial number should be on a small sticker inside the bowl. I think they came in black, natural or ruby-burst finish. Other than that, well, it's a Celebrity Deluxe 5 String Bass. I image it's a pretty nice instrument for the money. Dave

Thanks for the assist. Were they common? Seems like they would be if they were coming out of Korea. I'm trying to decide if I should keep it or not. I don't really play it enough to justify hording it.

Any idea as to what it would be worth?
