... tis truly a shame. This is my favorite Adamas. Plus if you're a walnut 'nut', this is the cat's azz!
Al, do you know how many were made? |

Location: SoCal | Iffy, I'm glad you liked this model. You're the one who bought the one guitar they made. I, on the other hand, never understood why they built this one. Like the FD14, it took a while for the 50 or so Utes that were built, to find homes. I never figured they'd sell many of these things...... |

I'm sure that Al will make it worthwhile for anyone that's interested. ;) |

Totally different animal from the UTE. I would love to get one, but It's outside of my means right now. |

Location: Sydney, Australia | I think some guitars take a while to find their niche. The 1680 is a great little fingerpicker if you don't need access to the higher frets. Ovation don't sell many 1 3/4" neck guitars. Does anyone know the common favourite nut widths for other manufacturers? Is the 1 11/16 the defacto standard? |

Location: South of most, North of few | I would really love to be able to pony up the $$ for one of these. When I first saw Keith's I thought, "another UTE" (which isn't a cut at all), but when i got to play it and listen to him play it, WOW. These are a world apart from the usual Adamas/Ovation. |

dweez,
If you haven't yet, do a '1680' OFC search. Sweet, sweet guitar! |
