Hi everyone,

I've got a old ovation balladeer(1973). But I'm looking to buy another ovation while I do
some work on my current ovation. I can buy this model CS257 for a $130, in really good
condition, anyone have any opinions on this model.

Thanks a lot !

I have owned a few CS257's they are nice guitars.
Understand that it is a Super-Shallow Bow with a Laminate top.
But they do sound nice plugged-in. They usually have an OP-24+ or OP-30 preamp.
Have you played it?

I have played it, very nice but I am little concerned about the supper shallow body. I also played a Elite Celebrity CE44 and
it has a mid-depth bowl which I liked a little bit better. They both played about the same but I like the sound unplugged
more with the CE44. I can get the CE44 for around $300 . The more I think about it , I think I am going for the CE44.
