Location: North Oregon Coast | I just sold a Martin, so I have a little GAS-Cash in my hands and I want to buy my girl friend an Ovation. I don't have a lot of money to spend ($400-$500, with maybe something in trade), so my choices will probably be somewhat limited. I thought about a new Celebrity but now I'm thinking that I could get more for my money by finding another model, used.
I would like a little bling 'cause my sweetie's so damned cute ;) , but the integrity of the instrument is the most important. I love the looks of a Custom Legend, but they are probably beyond my budget.
Any offerings, or suggestions?
Thanks! |

Good time to buy! Thanks Woody, looking for a six-string though (with steel strings). Now if it were for me, I would be interested in your Country Artist, nice guitar!! I have the time, I'm sure something will come along. Thanks again! |

I couldn't find this model in the archive section on Ovation's web site, can you describe it, do you have photos? Thanks! |

Location: GA USA | Ray, I like the way you think. You should definitely be able to find a great used USA Ovation. That's the way to go.
Good Luck.
I don't want to throw cold water on the deal with Keith, but be advised... he is a drummer. ;) |
