The Dread-Not Adamas has taken a playable shape And this surprise was reletively cheap. A "Cozart" 12 string "Tele" copy. I got the action right, just need to shave off some of the manly neck and shield the pups. You know... I'm really glad that Fender bought out Ovation. What a creative Company! | ||

Joined: December 2003 Posts: 13996 Location: Upper Left USA | I'm happy. Got the OP Pro Studio with XLR mounted in there. To me it sounds right up there with the other O's and plenty of thump and sustain (so I didn't just waste more lumber). Had some Sunshine here as well so... Still need to finish the binding and the Bowl finish but its nice to have it working. | ||
