I know that this model does not compare to the textured tops or epi models, and that it's not many here's favorite.

but I just won a 6591 with a natural graphite top for a little over 600 shipped, and I'm sure while it won't scare my other A or some of my deep-bowl Os that it will have it's own unique voice that's not total $#!t and a worthy addition to my collection.

graphite 6591

looking forward to another pre-Fender Ovation/Adamas guitar and the sound of Brown.

Thanks Schroeder..

I was in bed,(and probably still should be, I'm having another gall bladder attack) when Char came in and told me I had just won something on the bay.... it really was just a "hail mary" bid...

I couldn't let an Adamas in good condition go too low, at least to anyone but me :D so I threw a max bid of $600 on it.

surprised and happy I won.. now I have to figure out which guitar/s will have to go... :rolleyes: ,

I'm still on a 1 in 1 out rule, and she(Char) reminded me I'm a couple of guitars behind on the Out portion of the deal... but she was kidding, sorta almost..

Congrats. I was curious about that one. Never heard a roundhole A. Bring it up to the jam in January so we can check it out.

glowing endorsement Unkka Beal...

I've paid more for Legends, Collectors, Custom legends, Anniversary Models and Elites,

so I'm ok as long as it sounds/plays somewhere in that spectrum.

if not we can make it another pass-around puppy or "O"rphan or "A"doptee so that those interested in
"trying" before buying can check this model out.

I'm biting my tongue. I really want to know how it sounds you. My view point is very jaded and bigotted. Opinions formed in that environment can often be wrong.

Glenn,
I was watching that auction. Good buy! That has to be worth it for an Adamas in good shape. I'd like to hear strung with heavy D'Add's tuned down to C standard. That'll vibrate the top!
