I will also provide AirMail estimates and ship internationally. I'm making room for a custom order Adamas This 1537 is in extraordinary condition. Was seen and played at the 2006 OFC tour by many members here. I can't call it mint, but it's close. Sounds terrific. Plays terrific. Electronics are perfect. You will not be disappointed. Pictures on my "Opics" page (there are two 1537s on that page. This one is in the 3 photos just before the u681t). I can also provide detailed pictures on request. | ||

This is to quote another member, "The best sounding 1537, even better than mine". Jeff wont call it mint only because he's freakishly particular about some things, like the dog hair under the strings in one of his pics.... :D | ||

Joined: March 2004 Posts: 629 Location: Houston, Texas | I might add a few comments here, having just acquired a 1537. For those who don't have some of the nicer Ovation and Adamas guitars that everyone raves about on this board, you won't find a better value in a first class instrument than the 1537. The deep bowl, floating fretboard, stereo electronics and first class spruce top on these guitars all add up to an amazing instrument for both acoustic and plugged in use. It is exceptionally good for recording, with the stereo output placing the listener inside the instrument and surrounded by it's exceptional sound. It has an incredible balance between a smooth mellow low end and a clean crisp high end. In the time I've spent playing around with recording since I acquired mine, I am absolutely amazed that I can produce in my living room such an incredible sound. When compared with my recording attempts with my S771, this guitar produces a professional sounding result as opposed to a home-recorded amatuer sound. I thought some of my S771 stuff sounded pretty good but I never thought I could produce what I've been able to achieve with the 1537. | ||
