I tried to buy adamas U681T on music.123 website, but it's impossible before june 30, there is not in stock, I regret that zcord sold his adamas, I should be happy to buy it, so, for those who want to buy one on music123, you have to wait, and me, I can't (because I'l leaving definitly Reunion island back to France at this time...). I'm a little sorry, I like this guitar (
Just another word. It could have the same problem with the adamas II black reissue... |

Dave, I promise to give you a full and truthful comparison and send it off to you within the month! |

Not the green one (although it would match the color of my car). |

This is a great sounding guitar and will sell for a lot more in coming years. |

Come down to San Diego this weekend with us for the Matt Smith Chop Shop. I'll let you play mine, then you can call Al (from my cell phone, comission pending) and buy it!! |

Location: Los Angeles, CA | My weekends are normally busy. I'm going to be stuck at my church pretty much all day Saturday. Have fun!!
Why is everyone tying to tempt me? What have I ever done to you? I thought I had just dodged a bullet. In all seriousness, if Al had one of those U681T's (man, does that just roll off the tongue) in stock I would definitely have given him a chunk of my ill begotten wealth.
I know the 12 fret is a great guitar (even though it's not quite like it's prototype) but I was originally planning to save up for the '06 Adamas. Problem is, I'm not very patient, and the collectibility factor of the 12 fretter is soooo enticing.
Please don't tell me to just get both, I'm a poor boy who's just under a month ago got another great guitar. |

These are inanimate objects. They are things. They are not as important as the relationships or experiences we have.
We all know and understand this and can walk away from these idols any time we choose to.
Right?

The '06 will be around 12-18 months from now, maybe much longer because I do not think it is a limited offering.
Think about it. |

All the u681t's will be gone by then.
Course you will probably be able to score a used one on ebay for $2200-2500. :D |

Location: Boise, Idaho | You guys should count your blessings. My wife put me on a moratorium till fall, just because I bought 2 O's last Saturday. She didn't even find out about the second one till Sunday and I only spent $600 on both. I think 5 in the last 3 months after only 2 in 25 years overwhelmed her. Then there's the 3 amps, but they are all small and cheap. |
