2010s Ovation Celebrity GC057M Bowlback Cutaway Guitar



Overview: This is a "not at all bad," cheap, Chinese-made Ovation that will make a campfire player or student happy. The neck is cozy and will be familiar to many Ovation fans as the same profile found on most older ('60s, '70s) Ovations. It's been all scratched-up and used heavily but setup just dandy despite all that and is a decent player.


Repairs included: I cleaned it up a bit, adjusted the saddle, and set it up. It's playing swell.
