Location: SoCal | Adamas Baritone-12... yes
but, I am not a fan of the Contour Bowl for playing seated.
I think personal preferences will drive us in the direction of Custom Order. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Contour bowl for me could go either way. I am more used to the deep bowls and they are comfortable to me whether sitting or standing.
I think the only way to get a good price and a commitment is too go in mass through Al. Woody and I have inquired before and the mothership has not shown a great interest in the onesy twosy route.
I also like the red like #47 :D |

Location: Tidal Mudflats of Virginia | Perked my interest, but do tell, what exactly would one do will a baritone 12 string?
I've got a low deep voice, but I doubt anyone would want to hear me drop an octive and play a modern melody with it :D |

And Martin doesn't have one!
Really, it would have to come from Ovation. They are the only ones that could make it playable and dependable.
What ever happened to the concept of building something amazing for no other reason than because you could? |
