Location: Germany | Found this offer on French ebay:
Custom Adamas
It has the wide neck together with a cutaway. No usual production model had this specification.
I'm curious about the prize it will achieve.

Location: Phoenix AZ | Just my personal opinion, and I know it was probably done for acoustic reasons, but I just think the shifted sound holes on the treble side looks goofy. Maybe it's just me but the guitar looks like has melted in the sun. Anyway, nice guitar and it should receive a good bid. Dave |

Location: SoCal | Marcel Dadi had a number of Adamii built like this. What's unusual is that it's not a slothead. The vast majority of his Adamii were slots.
I agree with Dave. I think it looks goofy. |

Location: boulder | Guitar magic which is selling it I think from France is asking $5535 on their website. I noticed this before when looking at Jerome's awesome website. It has been for sale for a little at least.
I wonder what it sounds like? mike |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | If it doesn't negatively affect the sound, I really like the way the epaulets look. Kindof like a vine that flows and embraces the guitar. |

Location: Paris/France | Hi,
This nice Adamas has never been owned by Marcel Dadi but was built with some of Marcel's specifications (large neck and epaulets). You're right Moody. Most of Marcel's Adamas were slotheads. I say "most" because i'm not sure. I've never seen Marcel playing on a non slothead Adamas but i'm not an expert so...
Here is a photo sent to me by Guy Avengozar. Guy is a french guitar player and was one of the friends of the late Marcel.
Chet Atkins playing on Marcel's Adamas.
A great slothead in the hands of "the master"!!
