There is a real interesting Adamas for sale on eBay. Somebody custom ordered it. It is a SMT but has the headstock and bridge of an original Adams, the neck inlays of a current Elite, and pearl inlay around the body. A real one of a kind pience.

that looks like a guitar that may have been made for the export market.

I did not look at the label but it did remind me of export only guitars.

Very nice indeed. I'm going to assume that stripe across the top is a reflection.

Hey folks: First time to be here. So glad this thing is up and running.
It was made custom just for me; a one time thing. Had a music store to order for me. THe stripe is how it reflects when the light hits it.
NO export market.
"Friend of Ovation" because I stayed in contact while it was being made. I'm also a "Key Man" Player. Toured the factory a couple of times. Fascinating. I love these guitars.
Hope you all are doing great. Thanks for letting me in.
