In the end the choice became obvious and I went with the Ovation. They reviewed earlier Ovation bracing Show More. The Celebrity Standard CS28-NEB guitar has the classic Super Shallow Lyrachord cutaway body with a solid spruce top featuring quartersawn scalloped X bracing. The Tak sounds more like the Ovation ("shimmering")and has the tuner but is a little too plain looking and is priced a little higher. First-rate sound, style, features and value. The Yamaha looks nice, but has a generic sound to it and doen't have the on-board tuner. When I went looking for a new guitar, I decided on either a smaller body Yamaha, Takamine or Ovation, in the $500 price range. To me that must mean its a high quality product. This is a suprisingly sturdy guitar and always stays in tune. I've read that some people have problems with it slipping off while playing, but I haven't. I have no complaints with this guitar as of yet, but I can't see any negatives. I've even started playing using alternate tunings which can be adjusted in a flash. I'm not far along enough in my playing to tune my guitar quickly or easily, but with this guitar its both. The kicker for me, is the easy to use on-board tuner. It also has the Ovation pre-amp for plugging-in, which also sounds great. It has a "shimmering" type sound, similar to the sound you get with a 12-string. It came strung with D'Addarios and that won't be changing. It has the classic Ovation Headstock with chrome machines. It is a super shallow style,ĭeep purple with a rosewood fretboard and dots and diamonds inlay.

It has already helped me improve my playing and is so fun to play, the sky is the limit. Purchased w/Visa at Mothers Music - Calgary AB, Canada for $495 to replace older bulkier acoustic.Īn Awesome guitar.
