I posted earlier about a Legend 1117 (1981) that I am looking at. A new question. I can buy a new Celebrity Trekker Travel CC012 through ZZound on the internet for 229.00.

My question is, if I could purchase the 1981 Legend, or a new Celeb for virtually the same price, what is the better value?

Thanks for your input.

Thanks for the reply alpep. Well, the best deal I can work out is 240.00 for the 81 Legend, and a hardshell (albeit beaten)case. The rest is up to me. I absolutely love the way the guitar plays, and am pleasantly suprised with what I feel to be a nice Bass sound (as I was informed that the Leghend Ovation has little bass). 240.00 plus 6.5% for Govenor Ventura seems a little high, but I am about 85% sure I'm biting!

Anything else out there in that 200-250 range that might be a better deal (ovation or not?)

there is currently a c-257 on eBay
(Item # 878175626 ) that "may" fall into your budget range, it is at $158.49 right now with 1 day and 1 hour to go.

I can't believe the question was even asked. You could probably score a Custom Legend on eBay for what you'll end up paying for the other.

Check that last reply. The Custom may be a couple hundred more, but what a beautiful guitar!!
