My deepest thanks to John Budny, Kim Keller, and everyone else at the Mothership who worked on resurrecting #22234.
John, it is beautiful and sounds great! Thanks for the sparkle!
Al, thanks again for making the U681-12 happen for us.
Definitely the best acoustic 12-string out there...
now how about a longneck version of the U12?... and then I'm done ;) |

Location: Phoenix AZ | I will agree with my esteemed friend 100%. THIS is the best sounding Adamas 12 string I have ever heard. No disrespect to Adamas I or II, I've loved them both. But THIS is top dog in the 12 string kennel. Congrats Bruce.

PS - And YES, thank you Al for bringing another brillient idea to life for us members to enjoy. |

Location: SoCal | Ya know Bruce, you need to let me test drive that puppy for a month or so and a/b it against my Adamas I 12 and my GC 12 (don't laugh about the GC -- it's been turbo charged). |

but if that's what it'll take to win you over to the dark side, so be it... I'll see you at Church on Sunday. |

It looks great next to the cat!
It looks great in Lady Noah's arms!
It looked great swinging by itself in the hammock while we ate dinner!
I have not had it upstairs yet, but I'm sure it will look great next to my 6-string UTE!
As soon as we got the 6-string version, some of us kept asking Al about a 12-string. If you have a 6-string UTE, and did not get one of the 12-strings when AL made it happen for us, I advise you not to play the 12-string... you will hate yourself for not grabbing one (especially @ the price we paid). |

Last time we talked, it was future-son-in-law and you were a year younger :)
When did the "future" part of son-in-law drop off? |
