A very easy to play and great sounding, shallow body Adamas 12-string. Ruby Red Graphite top. Gold hardware, on-board EQ/Tuner. This is in NEW condition. Need to sell for $900 obo.
Thanks,
John

John's a straight-up guy. I'm sure the guitar is exactly like he says it is. Good luck with the sale.

Trader Jim, sorry I didn't get a chance to take pictures last night. I will be doing that tonight and emailing them to you. The Adamas is in excellent plus condition. I took out 1 shim and the action is very comfy. I played a 4 hour solo acoustic gig with this guitar and had no cramps or arm fatigue. Nothing but compliments on the sound.

Wow, Thank you Jim! I do have to say my photography skills suck. I better get my eyes checked because these look out of focus. Sorry for the bad pics, the guitar is in excellent condition. Next time I'll have the kids take the pics for me unless Patch wants to come over and take them for me.

Sorry I was so mesmerized by my photo's that I missed the question. The Adamas surprisingly sounds loud and very clear with good bottom end unplugged. I'm not saying as good as a mid-size but you would definitely be surprised. It has to be the Graphite!

Well...John would have to send me the guitar first. Then you know how it is; it takes time to take really good pictures. I might have to keep the guitar for a little while. ;)

But seriously, if he says it's in good shape, you can believe it. It's worth every penny.
