Dave Interesting - learned something new today.
So was that convention started by the legitimate "guitar industry", or just the misinformed public?
Is it like calling all tissues "kleenex"? |

But next time I sell one, I will be sure to throw the word Adamas into the listing. |

Just think of it as "creative marketing" ... or "fraud". What if some poor sucker who doesn't know model numbers actually bid on the basis it was an Adamas? |

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | I would hope that anyone spending money on ANY guitar would do at least SOME homework before pushing the button. I am tempted to email the guy and ask if the word ADAMAS is written ANYWHERE on this guitar. The seller may just be ignorant himself. |
