SSome details...

My newest find. Very cool guitar, but the neck angle was so flat that I had to drill all 6 holes in the string holder about 2mm deeper because there was only an extreme flat string  angle on the pickup

(I had to remove all shims to get a comfortable string action..) and the fretboard had a bad hump around the 15th fret, (details,details...) but now it sounds and plays really great again. I wish the guitar had a bolt-on neck. After a decent neckreset it would even have more power.

Location: moline,illinois		I don't think that's his new Adamas,the thread says 2008 adamas and that's obviously a lot older plus he has 2008C(collectors )in his list of guitars.
Thanks for trying but I think we'll have to wait to see pics.

Location: Cicero, NY		Oo, you could be absolutely right. Missed the thread subject line in my haste to help out and inadvertently brought Arthur down with me.

OMA, you should know by now to NEVER follow my lead...!

Location: Muenster/Germany		Sorry, folks.
I tried to insert the pics from dropbox, in the preview everything seemed to be ok. I used photobucket before, but it´s way too expensive now.Imgur did work for a short time but does not work for some weeks now, no idea why not. Thus I tried dropbox.. I am not so "computerized", I only know that I have to put my pics "somewhere on the internet" and then fill in the "URL" of the pic...but although I did everything that was expected from me it does not work. Sometimes I feel so incredibly stupid.
I will create a new album on this site instead, there I can easily put pics from my computer.(Why is this not possible in the forum???)
