Times change. Mostly playing bass with the band now. Acoustic sets go to the Tak.

I am ready to sell the Cootie. I love it, but it just doesn't get the love from me that it deserves.

For those who DON'T know, here are the specs:

Custom Adamas U681T
Textured top - like the UTE
Medium bowl
Cat's eye sound hole - like the 2080
Cutaway
12-fret to the neck
1 3/4 inch nut
Slothead
Op Pro Studio preamp with XLR

Pictures are on the forum for the searchers (Can't link to them from work). Soundbites are around too. I have offered it to schroeder as he has laid claim to it since day one. He gets first dibs on it.

I'm asking $1700 plus shipping.

Yep, that's it. There are better photos out there. I have also taken off the label and it now has a black bridge.

I've played this guitar. It's one of the most impressive Adamii I've ever played. Hope it stays in the family.....

Have at it Dweezil! I've never been thrilled with the Cat's Eye motif, but if it sounds like my Ute, they'll have to pry it from your cold, dead fingers. (And while we're being morbid, Happy Halloween everyone!)

Jim,

You remember all of them. Probably because you've owned them. :D

Nope, never owned this one, but I remember when Doc ordered/received it. The talk of the town at the time, and deservedly so. That is a beauty visually, and equal sonically, I'm sure.

Um, Yeah. These photos are old, just after I got it. I took off the label. The white thing inside the sound-hold that you see in the photos. That's a label. I took it off....

I removed it.

It's now gone.

It's not there anymore.

IE... I've taken off the label... ;)

Wow. Nothing.

I thought this would go fast. Anyway, if anyone is interested, let me know or it goes on the bay.

Just wondering why you would do that - can only devalue it.

This guitar is stunning. If it only had a 1 7/8" wide neck I would not hesitate one second and grab it. Good luck with the sale!
