Location: Pennsylvania | Wow. Thats one of the nicest guitars I've ever seen.
The flowering headstock maybe is a little too much for my tastes, and if I ever got a 12 string (other than my 1975 Ibanez Concord which needs a little repair), I'd get a cutaway.
Still, that is one nice guitar!! |

Location: RI. That small State out East | This guitar has a "low reserve" SN 5997-93 That puts it around a 1991 model run if I read the chart... His reserve is under $1,000
Does anyone have good or bad info on this model / year? I read Cwk2 comment... It would be a long shot to go after this... But you never know.

I've got an Adamas 12 string ("Big Blue") that was built in 1992. The only difference is mine has the external battery door.
It's a great guitar. Maybe the best 12 string I've ever picked up. If you bought the one on ebay, you'd be very satisfied (I personally don't care for the black color) assuming that the guitar is in good shape. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Aside from getting the descrfiption wrong this would be a great guitar to have. The headstock grows on you with time. The guitar appears to be in good shape, one of you should grab it....... |

Location: Pennsylvania | Yeah, I'd love to grab it! It's incredible looking, and I'm looking for a nice 12 string. Definately a great price in my book! I just bought this elite t here, though, and still have to sell the elite special, and then wait at least 6 months before diving into another purchase. Shoot.

Location: Zion, Illinois | My wife told me that my birthday was coming up and as long as I sell one of my guitars to help pay for it, I should go-for-it!!!
I did and was out-bid by $25 in the last second.
All right, which one of you #$*%$&#$*$#'s did it!
I'll find out!!! :mad:
You won't be able to keep you're mouths shut for long! :mad: :mad:
You won't be able to keep it in, you'll HAVE to post a picture of you're new baby, and when you do...................................
