Pay attention guys - you get the full history AFTER you buy it.

And although the guy doesn't play, in his opinion this is a BEAUTIFUL guitar.

And it's not ACTUALLY his.

Can't imagine why you're not bidding.

I have been stock piling some Monopoly money!

I was trying to sell a small amp and had started it at $1. I got email from a Newbie on Ebay who asked me why I started so low if I wanted so much ($90)!!

Inversely I don't like it when someone has a start price which is more than they would probably get. Oh well.

"History once bought?"

Reminds me of my practice marriage.

Oops! Was I typing out loud again?

the model # is 1688-09 the serial # is 792

Pics that were sent weren't very good so I requested additional ones that are clearer.

I find this one interesting too... adamas II no.2200 Item number: 7318842467
It is a 6-str, whispers 1537, and is close to my house.

Tony made a comment in the other thread regarding the auction on MSB's 12-str Blue Adamas... it really got me thinking about what I would want in an Adamas-12.
Maybe time to sit down with Al and find out how much.

I love my 1681 (blue) and it does resemble a 1537.

This one seems a little high but maybe not if truly mint. With zero feedback, I would definately want to look at it.

Bruce, check it out. You know I like the redburst and you like the blueburst.....maybe a trade down the road!

Stephen, Are you saying that you think your 1681 sounds like a 1537. No problem if that's what you think, but my ears hear it differently. Both great sounding instruments, but to me they sound nothing alike.

By the way, I just got a 1581(?), not sure if that's the right model number. But it's the deep bowl cutaway with holes and epaulet only on the bass side. HOLY COW, what a monster sound. I'll post some pics. This could be my new favorite guitar.

Dave, The resemblance is a looks only thing. I would think T28 was agreeing.
