Hi everyone,

I take it Ovation has completely discontinued the "super shallow" product line. Is it true?

Anyway, I'm a Guitar Craft (Robert Fripp's) student, and we play super shallows exclusively there. The question is, I own a Celebrity CC28 model, and it sounds rather thin acoustically (without using the pickup).

Would buying a Legend or a Custom Legend give me a noticeably better acoustic sound?
Are these Legends and Custom Legends Korean-made?

Are the Korean ones inferior to the American ones in terms of, once again, pure acoustic sound?

Sorry for a lot of questions, and thanks in advance!

Just to clarify: I can't utilize the "try-before-you-buy" approach since the closest store that deals in super shallows is in another country (Germany).

I don't have an answer for you. I don't know anything about Celebrities and haven't had a chance at Asian made Custom Legends.

I can upgrade you so you can ask in other sections. So feel free to post about.
