This Adamas he has is pretty unique.

Adamas with Tacoma-like holes

I've seen a couple like this (not in person). I think they made a few in the mid 90's. No idea what it sounds like. I personally like the fact that they got rid of the gay fig leaves, but for some reason the holes just look to me like someone put their foot through it. Dave

There are some sweet O's and A's being offered there! A little pricy, but I am rather cheap.

Hard to believe that Mr. Farquart isn't already an OFCer.

Reasonable???? if you take the 50% tax deduction. Clever way of getting a higher price, perhaps?

Amen. He obviously appreciates nice Ovations. Delbert, where are you? You beat me by $5 on a Viper last month.

The Adamas is an Adamas III. It appeared in a mid 90's catalog for one year. It was based on a prototype built in the 70's. It had an ok sound. I played one at the GC in Hollywood. I was not highly impressed.

Some really nice pieces.

I like the cream GS and the rare cream UKII, but holy crap what a premium he's asking.

Too rich for me for these guitars, but we'll see what the market will withstand.
