6683?
Looks like a 1685 to me. Purty, though.

It is an 1885 according to the seller's email to me.

Good eyes, dave!

Seller has revised the listing too.

He emailed me last night and said it is an
1885-NB8 Serial number 6683. Is this a Shallow bowl?

Bummer!... I was hoping to get a chance at something like this in a deep bowl. ):

The model number will tell you the bowl depth.

As far as the Adamas models go, the 11xx, 15xx, 16xx model numbers will be deep bowls. 18xx model numbers will be shallow bowls. If my memory is correct, only the Adamas II was available in a shallow bowl and the Adamas I was only available in a deep bowl (unless it was a custom guitar).

If I'm mistaken, I have no doubt that I will be corrected.

Thanks for the info. I hope I can someday have the opportunity to snag a good deep bowl textured top Adamas 12-String. I really love my Custom Legend 12, but I'd give her up to have an Adamas.
