Hi,

I'm happy to share these pics of this slothead with you all:
ADAMAS 1689-7 #519

This one has been ordered by Marcel Dadi in 1978 and I'm sure that Tuppy will love it because it's a wide neck... ;)

What I REALLY love is that it was an A/E that was gutted and turned into a true acoustic, the way guitars are meant to be! Dave

That's right Dave, the original electronics has been remove but still an A/E.
There's a UST B-Band under saddle tranducer and Rémy told me that it sounds more "acoustic" when plugged.

I should have the privilege to hear that sound in 2 weeks!!!

I've been under the impression the "slothead" Adamas' ended with #60.
Is it because #519 was a special order build?
Or, because it was for Marcel Dadi?
Or both.

Marcel had a number of guitars built for him. A lot of them included slotheads....

The rarest thing of all is a check with his signature.
