With all the new models being announced, which single item are you most likely to purchase new?

For me, I have never owned an Adamas and I'm intrigued by Al's description of the new Adamas model coming out later in the year.

Which one for you?

My sentiments exactly, English Player. I already have a beautiful wood-topped O and am definitely looking forward to rounding out the arsenal with one of the new '05 Adamii.

There are 7 new models that I would love to have -

2005 collectors
LX deep bowl custom legend
#47 Reissue
12 fret slothead
Adamas II reissue
LX 12string legend
Adamas cateye

My idea is to find 6 other friends with the same wish list. We each buy a different guitar from the list and every month we rotate guitars. Any takers ???

Several of them sound good to me, but being a lefty, I'm sure my choices will be dramatically limited.

I'd love the Adamas 1 reissue (but I don't know if there's even such a thing as a left handed Adamas). I'm also intrigued by the Traditional Series that's coming out later. Someone said (W-2, I believe) that this series will likely include some shiny bowl reissiues. Could a reissue Glen Campbell Deluxe Ballader be on the horizon... One can dream!

Dave, where is the OFC guitar on your list?

The elusive #47 with electronics!

My must get list for 2005 is:

12 Fret Slothead (already on order with Al)
2005 collectors
Either OFC or #47 Resissue depending on color choices

My wish list would be:

Adamas Catseye
Adamas or Legend LX 12 string

I am looking hard at the Adamas 40th Anniv. Model U681T-5 I believe. Slot head style I think is what you call it. I don't have an Adamas either and looking hard at this guitar.

Al, sent you an e-mail ref. this one! :D

I would love to have the #47 replication, but I value being married and living in the same State as my belongings!

The "06" Custom Elite LX 12 with the Hyperbolic Bowl and OP PRO II is looking promising!
