Location: Burbank | I have an 1687 Adamas I re-issue that I enjoy and is in mint condition. The more I get into finger picking, the more I like my wide necks better. I wonder if anyone has a 1689 Adamas (in like condition) they may be interested in trading? I know some people have had wide necks and had issues with the width. Anyway if anyone is interested let me know. |

Location: Moscow, Russia | Mario, 1689 is quite rare bird, easier to find 1688 (I) or 1685 (II) and convert it down to 6-strings

Location: Germany, where delicious wine is growing (Rheinh) | Alex idea is right, but... the stronger bracing and bridge from the 12-string is not for the best tone with 6-strings. I've done this with an old 12er woodbox and it sounded like grab.....
