Location: Jet City | Very interesting indeed. A 12 string longneck with custom inlay work and murdered-out eppies
If I had the scratch to through at it, I just might.

Location: Jet City | Actually I don't think it's a longneck. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's a longneck case |

Location: Utah | The only true O longnecks I've seen are StephenT28's. His cases are dramatically larger looking traditional shape with tolex-style covering. They are not at all the molded plastic Ovation factory case as shown in that auction link. |

Location: closely held secret | Don't know about the case, but it's definitely a longneck. Fret spacing and the location of the bridge. |

AlanM, you need that one to play your terriers on! |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | My adamas 2080D longneck has a slotted headstock which makes it about 2 inches longer than a paddle headstock.
This makes it too long for any regular case so I had to modify an acoustic bass case for a proper fit. |

| Maybe woody can remember (he spent half a day playing it) - was Stonge's custom Adamas SSB 12 string a long neck? |

| Awesome guitar.
Surprised nobody has ever ordered one. It would be right up Prof BB's street. The ultimate performance 12 string Adamas.
And easily converted to a 9 or 7 string...... |

I have an 1866 Legend SSB 12 and a custom ordered EA58 Viper 12 which meet my needs most of the time, but I've often thought an Adamas 1885 would be the cat's meow. Woody had one on his sale rack a while back. However, I've never considered a long-neck option on an SSB 12. |

Custom Longneck 12 string?
