| Is it worthy? Well maybe. I think the question everyone now has to ask himself is, do you feel lucky today. Is the used Adamas your thinking about buying a better guitar or a better value than buying a new Adamas 1687 reissue with a lifetime warrantee? Since the word got out that you could buy a new 1687 there seems to be a slight up tick on old ones for sale. I suspect at least some of these are people looking to get rid of an old one that may have issues in order to buy a new one. Two wooden knobs or a built-in tuner does not a grate guitar make.

| It has been my experience that novice guitar sellers usually ask for more money than their guitars are worth and are less careful about describing the condition but keep an eye on it. You may get lucky. Sometimes theirs some real steals on ebay. |
