The GC28-AB features a super shallow Roundback body that projects Ovation's signature balanced sound. The top and matching peghead face are made from highly figured birdseye maple and finished in a rich Autumn Burst transparent stain. Powering the electric output is the CP100 pickup with six individual piezo elements. An OP20 preamp perfectly amplifies the guitar's natural acoustic tone and gives players plenty of control over their sound with an on-board tuner and 3 band EQ. An integrated pre-shape circuit lifts the bass and treble and also reduces "rumble" from frequencies below 40Hz.

Big sound emanates from this shallow-bodied wonder. Add the Celebrity GC to your collection today.

This guitar is sick!

This is an amazing buy, I tried out at least 20 guitaurs in the price range from $300.-600. and this one took the cake! The action is a little high, pickups are not the best, but if the U.S.A made it it would be at least a $2,000-3,000 guitar! The only huge downfall is the cheesy white fake ivory edge trim, looking to get that fixed soon.

Ok, first off, this is one beautiful guitar!! The finish is flawless and the inlay work was done perfectly. The pickup sounds great, even thru a marshall stack. The electronics aren't top of the line, but they sound great. It is an amazing value for an amazing looking guitar, so what are you waiting for?? BUY IT NOW!!

A Great Performer

I got tired of snapping in a soundhole pickup every time I wanted to play through a PA system or amp with my main $$$$ acoustic, plus I wasn't too keen on taking it some of the places I was taking it, so I bought this guitar as a "knock-around". I didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised after I got it home. It plays so easily, looks so good, and sounds so natural "plugged in" (for which it was designed - players who complain that the "unplugged" sound is weak may not understand that) that I play it often. One thing I really like is the on-board tuner which, unlike many with only 6 LEDs for standard tuning, has 12 LEDs for A,B,C,D,E,F & G and flats in between - great for alternate tuning. If you want an acoustic guitar that sounds good unplugged, look for a traditional box; but if you want a good-sounding, great-playing, classy-looking acoustic-ELECTRIC, you need to try this one. It's no "knock-around".

A great surprise

I was aprehensive about ordering a guitar on-line without seeing it or playing it. It turned out to be all I wanted or expected. It plays great, has good tone and arrived in great condition. Now I have the acoustic-electric I always wanted.

Not a bad guitar for the price

Purchased this guitar for my wife to learn on and have spent a little time behind it myself. Its not to bad out of the box but could use a good setup as it has some buzzing going on. I do more flatpicking than anything else and this one seems better suited for fingerpicking. Overall I'm satisfied with the guitar at the price offered here.
