Location: SoCal | Just kidding...however, brings up something very important in that not all on this board "need" a Custom Elite, Custom Legend, or an Adamas.
What they need is a well made, good sounding, good looking guitar that, when plugged in, sings.
That is the Celebrity line...good neck, good pre-amp, attractive.
Many times on the OFC we have discredited it. |

Just kidding...however, brings up something very important in that not all on this board "need" a Custom Elite, Custom Legend, or an Adamas. My memory still works... When I came here in September 2006, I had No Ovations.
But I was waiting on a 4861 Korean Balladeer.
I bought a coupla beater 1112's and was Happy to have a USA Ovation.
But I have owned a CC44, a coupla CS257's, a CS255, a CC57, and currently have a CK047 and a TC012.
Some people cannot afford an Adamas, or an Elite, but a CS257 or a CC44 kinda look like an Elite.
And they are still better than alot of other guitars in the same price range out there.
Gotta start with Baby Steps.
[I tried to go into the Archives and find one of my posts with my old sig line, but the sig line on those changes with my present one... Oh Well!] |

Location: Colorado | I bought a Celebrity Deluxe back in 1992 and could have spent another $400 for the Elite 1868. Back then I really needed that extra $400. It wasn't an Elite or an Adamas, but it served me well. |
