Location: NJ | I just updated my website with a bunch of Adamas guitars. Unfortunately my sandisk for my digital camera got corrupted and I lost all my photos so it will be a while before photos are up.
If anything looks interesting to you e mail me. I always welcome trades. Currently the only Ovations I am looking for are Adamas I, Breadwinner, deacons, limited, storm series, and interesting pieces. I would consider many brand X guitars in trade. |

You have an interesting collection of guitars for sale. What does it mean when your descriptions say "Export Market only"? |

Does that mean you have to use metric picks as well? |

John and I played a couple of these at Al's, and they ARE fabulous sounding guitars at a really great price! |

Location: Scotland | The export models use metric 6.35mm jacks and they are designed to self-destruct if you attempt to play any indiginous US musical style on them. This is to stop unscrupulous dealers selling them in the US. So if you by one from Al you will be stuck with a reportoire of British Isles folk music or something else equally lame. |

It would be confused, but safe. |

Location: NJ | I have some very cool guitars in stock. just let me know.
The Adamas guitars are standard in every way except for the textured tops. If you have every played one you will know what the fuss is about.
If you are interested in anything let me know. Trades are welcome, but I am looking mostly for specific Ovation/Adamas guitars and other brands as well. |

Just think about the armless man that used to play guitar with his feet, and you will realize how blessed you are, even if you have a bad foot. Get better and try to keep one good 12 string around for when I get some money. I am trying to avoid looking at 12 strings, but each night this board subjects me to myriad Ebay beauties that I can't afford, so I am depending on you to be there when I can.
