Please enlighten me in regard to the differences between the Ovation CSD-225 and the Ovation CSE-225.
Is it merely the red burst vs blue finishes, or are there other differences, as well?
Thank you.

Way back when, I believe that that the CSE had a Solid Top and a longer fingerboard.
Also triangle abalone fingerboard markers.
And GC sez that it might have a Flamed Maple Top.

Whereas the CSD has (or had) a laminate top and a Celebrity style fingerboard end.
Plus it has smaller, not so fancy, fret markers.

Lately, I am not sure what is going-on.
But I know that is what the difference was back in 2008 or so...

Hope that helps.
