Location: Keller, TX | I am selling some guitars for the Ovation Rep. He has asked me to sell his Adamas I as well. 1687-5 (Black), non cutaway, two-knobber. Label signed by cwk2. Serial 2315-95. This was the one he had at OFC Texas last year. Brown OHSC included.
Pretty good condition overall. It is a little dusty, I haven't cleaned it up yet. Two small dings in the top, not noticable unless you look for them. The fretboard has been laminated by someone and it is wearing off on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd frets. I imagine a little naptha or denatured alcohol will take this stuff off. Anyway, that needs a little touchup. Otherwise in great shape.
I don't really want to put this one on Ebay. Is anyone here interested? If so, make a decent offer and I will ask Mike if he wants to accept the offer.
If nobody wants it, what do you guys think I should ask for it on Ebay. I did a completed item search and there aren't many of these found.

Location: Keller, TX | Hard to photograph. I just has a light coat of varnish or something on it. Has a little shine on it. I'll see if I can get a better picture.
The only reasonable way to ship from US to Europe is by regular mail. Uninsured is about $100 US. |

I asked Mike if he wants to sell outright for a specific price. He said he wants to see what Ebay brings.

Can you tell us about the year of this guitar ? How about electronics ?
Can we have more pics of headstock and neck ?
Headstock looks fine.
Here is a photo that better captures the "varnished" appearance of the fingerboard.

Hi Standigovation.
Can you suggest us reasonable price ? Hard to say. Price Police might chime in and be able to give you some ideas.

Location: 6 String Ranch | A little steel wool on the f/b should smooth it out, make it look better and not take off all the coating, whatever it is. Of course if you want it off, rub harder. |

Any takers? If not, it is going on Ebay on Thursday. (I emailed Jusufs on Monday, no response yet, but he gets first option) |

| $2000 is a nice price for an OFC member. It wil hit the $2000 mark with no problem on Ebay.
THese are worth more than this |
