"Best Buy"

Feature:
The roundback is amazing. The spruce top is top notch. The finish is almost completely unblemished with one little thing wrong where it looks like the grain wasn't perfect. The on board electronics are great and well made. The on board tuner is easy to use and well designed.

Quality:
The tuners are all nice and sturdy. The bridge is great.

Value:
It is above and beyond the best value.

Sound:
This is by far the best value priced acoustic electric on the market. The only gripe I have is it's made in China. Other then that, the sound is perfect, it's balance between light and dark tones is fantastic. Plugged in to my Marshall MG50DFX it gave a warm, throaty clean tone, as well as great highs and mids. The distortion was almost perfect for an acoustic electric with very little feedback.

Ease of Use:
To make this short, anyone who can play guitar, can pick this guitar up and make beauty.

Ovation CC245 12-String Customer Review

Quality:
All around great workmanship and materials. I think this guitar will last my son a lifetime.

Value:
I feel like we got a steal. We bought a blemished guitar and it took my husband and I a very long time to even spot the imperfection. It was a minor scratch in the finish that will never be seen.

Sound:
We bought this guitar for my son's 16th birthday. He has a few other guitars, this by far has the best sound quality. Very impressive.

Ease of Use:
This guitar has an electronic tuner. My son's still tunes by ear, but found the tuner easy to use.

Support:
We haven't had any service issues. I did have to call ZZ Sounds to place the order and they were great to work with.

Overall:
As I mentioned before, it was bought for my son's 16th birthday. We wanted to get him something special that he would remember for a life time. This guitar definitely will do that.

About This Product!
Description
The Ovation Celebrity CC245 12 String delivers that broad, unique sound that only a great 12-string can produce. It's the ideal way to get that sound on stage!

Thanks to the Ovation Celebrity line, the sound that made the acoustic guitar a viable electric instrument, is now within everyone's reach. Features include an Ovation Slimline pickup, a center-soundhole, a rosewood fingerboard and gold hardware. Built by Ovation's Pacific-based subsidiary, the Celebrity benefits from the same USA-made Lyrachord body as its more upscale American brothers.

The Ovation OP4BT Preamp and Tuner
The CC245's onboard OP4BT offers +/-12dB control over the bass, midrange, and treble frequencies for great tonal flexibility. Its tuner is easy to use and helps you stay perfectly in-tune, even when using open or non-standard tunings.
