Location: CA		It finally occurred to me today why (IMHO) 'outie' epaulets on Ovation and Adamas guitars look so much better than 'Innies' — the latter remind me of birds with folded wings, while the outies are more like birds in flight.

And yes, it HAS been a slow news day here in the office.

Location: Phoenix AZ		There was a long thread a while back about why outies sound better than innies. Has to do with how they allow the s/b to vibrate in a more natural pattern. Dave

Location: Chicago		Lost me there. Reminded me of an old girlfriend. She was rather exalted, "spritual", and censored a part of her anatomy as "outie-only" (no innies).

Seriously: WTF? Innie Outie? Have I missed an important detail. My Adamas 1581: is that innie or outie or what?

confused

Location: Boise, Idaho		That's the main reason an 87 Collector's is better than the Book Elite. 87 has innies and the Book has outies.

That must explain why I've always like the Book better...I'm an "outie" guy.

Based on which, an Adamas 1581 with a bass-only outie is money for me.
