I think it's a wide nut one.

Location: Germany | Seller says it was heavily played and therefore shows some signs of wear (I assume on the fretboard). Conctacted him regarding model# and more info but no response so far.

Location: Germany | It seems to be an a/e so if it's really a wide-neck the model# should be 1689-7. Seller just replied. He says that he isn't the owner of the guitar and that he will forward my inquiry. Let's see. I will keep you posted.

Location: Germany | Hi folks,
just phoned with the owner of the Adamas (who is a friend of the seller on ebay). As expected the model# is 1689-7, serial# is 1012-89 (production year 1979). The guitar is not in original condition as he installed a battery compartment as shown in one of the ebay pics. Addtionally he fixed the floating fretboard on the top with Pattex glue.
The guitar has been played on stage and therefore shows some signs of wear. There are some dings on the headstock, frets and fretboard are partly worn but still plays with no buzz.
The owner prefers to sell to Germany but he is also open to sell abroad if he can be sure that the potential buyer is honest.
If somebody here is interested in this guitar I can arrange the deal.
