Location: SoCal | There's a 78 Adamas wideneck on ebay right now with the bidding at $2550. It's nice to see an Adamas move into a price range in which it belongs.
After looking at the Taylor price list, I would guess that a guitar like this Adamas should be selling for at least a grand over where the bidding is right now.
Al, no comments on price police please. |

| Wow!!! Why did this go for so much more than the 1687's that have recently been sold on ebay?? Is it the color, the wideneck, or both? |

The brown color, the focused pictures and the original owner story. I am not sure what additional info was provided by the Seller upon request but I guess it instilled confidence.
It also follows in a wave of "Slothead" and Adamas I frenzy.
Go figure. |

Location: Liberal Kansas | Hello all:
I am the guy that sold this Adamas on Ebay. First I would like to thank every one on this site for the nice things said. I was supprised that it went as high as it did. I, like every one els thought that arround 2K would get it. I did answer a lot of questions via email about the condition ect. I also sent out a lot of extra picts as well. Didn't really want to part with her.........but alas I am a pilot. And have a daughter in college. (we don't make as much as every one thinks) I hope to own one again someday as this is the best guitar ever made. Thanks again to all. C |
