Ovation CC057 Celebrity Acoustic Electric Guitar
Super shallow cutaway. Black finish, NOT shown.
"CELEBRITY? I WANNA BE FAMOUS TOO!"
Feature:
My guitar didnt include any accessories except a truss rod wrench. The factroy strings were a little rough on my fingers(medium). I recommend changing them ASAP, besides lighter strings sound better on this guitar. The onboard electronics are great.
Quality:
BULLETPROOF! I am hard on just about everything I own, this thing is tough. I have knocked it over several times and havent damaged it. The onboard tuner is great. If you are looking at another guitar that is a little less expensive it is worth the extra money to get the tuner.
Value:
YES! WORTH EVERY PENNY! When I tell people that I have an Ovation they either want to see or play it. Excellent choice for the beginner or a seasoned vet.
Desirability:
I will never own another acoustic, love Ovations. I am going to buy a 12 string Balladeer for my next one.
Sound:
I am a beginning guitar player and have owned it for about 2 months. It has a great sound with light or extra light strings. I have played it through a Peavey Rage 158 amp and it only sounds better. The onboard tuner and electronics are great. I was surprised at how deep and rich the sound is from a super shallow bowl back.
Overall:
Quality features, tone, value, and the Ovation reputation are all good reasons for getting this guitar. My guitar instructor has a Glenn Campbell Ovation Balladeer from the mid '70s that plays and looks like it did when he bought it almost 30 years ago, although the natural top has yellowed a little. I plan on keeping this guiatr until it falls apart and I don't plan on that being any time soon. BUY IT!

Overall:I own a Ibanez AE10 that was given to me . I bought the Ovation so that I wouldnt have to lend out my Ibanez at the jams after church , I play drums . The Ovation has a different sound from the Ibanez . Acoustically it is louder . Plugged in it has a brighter sound , a little more bite . I really like this guitar . The built in tuner is a pluse . Its a little sturdier than the AE10 , you can bang on it harder than you can other guitars and not worry too much . And its easyer to change the strings on this thing since you dont have to worry about pegs . Getting a good sound pluged in is easy .I run it through a DI box into the board and run the channel flat . It has a good pre amp and its easy to get a good sound out of it . You can get several different good sounds out of it ! Good guitar for the money . Buy one !

Ovation Celebrity CC057 Customer Review
Great guitar for the price. The cut-away body allows you to reach the high notes. The electronics allow you to use the instrument as a lead or rhythm guitar. The thinner body eleminates some of the slipping problems guitarists often complain about with the round-back ovations. Most of all...it's fun to play. I own eight guitars, and the first time I played the Celebrity, I had to have it.
"Beautiful guitar "for the money"."
Bass is a little muddy with no amp, but at high volume/amped you actually have to damp the bass to stop it from ringing until if feeds back. It would be nice if it had a tuner built in like the higher end ovations, but a 3 band equalizer is good enough. These are my only two complaints. The finish is beautiful, once the amp is adjusted the sound is fantastic, and it plays like a dream.
"Great sound and a great price"
I was worried about buying a cheap import but found that this guitar is of good quality and will suit my needs for years to come.The playability right out of the box is amazing.And after I removed the shims in the bridge the action was low and fast without any buzz.Truely a outstanding value!
"Great guitar!"

I have this guitar, and it's wonderful! The neck is so smooth, it plays great, and it feels comfortable because the back is made of fiberglass, which is made to fit your body.
"Easy playin and great tone"
The EQ on this guitar can take it from a nice acoustic guitar to a decent sounding electric guitar. Lightweight and comfortable to play. i have used this on stage and I get a lot a great comments on the tone and look of the guitar....what else is there?
"An Ovation suprise."

Feature:Good onboard tuning device with an EQ and the ability to plug into an amp for richer sound.
Quality:
I got the Rose wood which I think looks great and different from the normal colors. Quality built and easy care. I do recomment a hard case.
Sound:
Robust sound when playing easy or hard.
"It sounds great!"

Owned for about 15 months. I wanted somthing between the 12 string and Gibson SG to play. I really love it. Some of the frets are worn already though and that is to bad because the overall guitar is great.
