Do you think the ADII will adopt the contour bowl as well?

And I wonder why you never see an FRG ADII anywhere? TheBay seems to be flooded with FRG 2005's and FRG LX Balladeers, but no ADII's. :confused: :confused: :confused:

Do you ever get them in Al?

The way it looked on the '05 tour the ADAMAS section is quite small with only a couple guys in there... I'm sure they are some of O's BEST to handle the Flagship Line... They can take more time and don't make too many big mistakes... I also assume Ovation wouldn't want FRG's ADAMI on the street anyway... With 1000's of Ovations made a few FRG's are expected, compared to the limited number of ADAMAS the big O wouldn't want to see any FRG's... IMHO

I thought the ADII (Al Di Meola signature model) was an Ovation, not an Adamas.

The ADII is wood topped, not an Adamas. I think Ab was thinking of an Adamas II.

Maybe it will depend on if Mr. DiMeola likes the new bowl.

I believe Al had an ADII FRG a while back.....you snooze, you lose.

I hope the AD does not go to the new bowl. I don't think they all should. Variety is good!!!
