Joined: April 2004 Posts: 795 Location: Texas | It looks no different than most Ovation's nut space, it plays beautifully, and the sound is simply the best Adamas I have ever play. The action at the 12th fret is: Low E: 4mm High E: 3mm more or less....... :) Let me know before it sells. | ||

When a gifted player offers a hard to find instrument and say's it plays and sounds great but still can't move it??? I would challenge anyone at the entry level to buy this guitar and try to grow into it! You may not buy another 6 string! I am broke again but I think I've made some good trades and purchases in the last couple of months. One of them being the 1587 - which is this Adamas with the carved thingies and snob appeal :rolleyes: This is the same guitar at a great price. | ||

So I bought an Adamas while it was cheap. :rolleyes: I would challenge anyone at the entry level to buy this guitar and try to grow into it! This is the same guitar at a great price. I don't play any better on the Adamas than I do on anything else, but it sounds better and I feel better. | ||
