I can sell you an Adamas 1 just like it, except for the broccoli head, carved bridge, wide fretboard, two knob preamp,.... Oh well, at least mine is the same color. :rolleyes:

I thought it was the same as Karl's. Very nice, indeed. By the way, Dave, Karl says very nice things about you. He almost had me convinced. SWMBO heard the story, too. She still thinks we're all nuts.

That is absolutely my most favorite Adamas color; the only thing that saves the rest of you from watching me land it is my bad shoulder.

after going back and revisting that guitar on ebay i believe ill pass ... i mean damn why wouldnt that seller show the issues at the beginning of the auction? Plus he's now all over the place where it has to do with this guitar? weird?

Yeah, some of those pics are scary. Almost looks like a patch job on the side. If you could get it cheap enough, the factory could respray the bowl for probably a few hundred assuming it was structurally sound.

I agree.......was watchin that one too,but first the back is cracked and super glued,then its not and no super glue,I believe my memory would be a little better with a guitar like that,if it was one of these cheap old balladeers I plunk then no big deal,but get up around a 1K,my memory gets better,besides this statement has me a little confused........(Amendment: Strings were lowered a little at the bridge (by carefully filing notches) to make it easier to play. Did not affect tone or pickups at all.)



...........good luck

Call Al, he has had some great deals available, including the 2080. He had a really great price on the 2080 with the iDea preamp tossed in for free. If he still has that available it is a killer deal. Or, watch eBay and Craigslist. Make some crazy lowball offers and eventually one will come your way.

jim, i agree with you if ya could get it cheap... but to me with those issues cheap is 600 not opening bid of 1200. send me a picture of your 1681 and a price.

jstout, i agree with you the guy has no idea what he is saying before he says it...?????

fly, not sure who al is but i have been reseaching this guitar for a while.. ebay has one at 560 with 4 days left:

Yeah Geneo... The thing about that 2080 is that those folks Know that they can start the bidding at a penny and it will get up to it's true value by the time the auction is over!
