Believe me, it's more of a joke at this stage of my life than anything else.
Any way, if it came off sounding like I was puffed up, my apologies. Actually, I hadn't noticed. Don't worry about it.
I just saw an opening and took a shot (it's second nature)..... |

That's probably a more target rich opening... |

JM (oddly enough, I have a friend who also goes by 2 first names John Mark, so I'll address you the way I address him and keep the clutter in my brain to a minimum) you have got to get your pics of your guitars back up. The natural back Viper and the Custom Legend (mid depth bowl?) are just stunning guitars..... |

Location: Maine | Hey folks... My daughter just received the Miley Cyrus / "Hannah Montana The Movie" soundtrack for a birthday gift.
Take a look at what is now shown in the CD jewel case.
CD Booklet Cover
CD case inner artwork, under CD
The wide pattern wood grain appears to have been "photoshopped" on the original black Adamas I as previously shown on the Billboard Magazine cover.
My wife had taken her to the movie when it was in the theater. She never mentioned to me if they actually used the Adamas guitar in the movie.

Well at least the jobs of Men...
Comment #2 - Isn't that Alpep's Wood Adamas Dreadnaught? |

On the small chance that it's not a photoshopped picture then I would have to be a prototyped 1537 super elite. But I suspect that it's the black Adamas.... |

The girl's pose and position of the guitar are exactly the same in this pic as in the one originally posted, so I'd have to put my money on just the guitar top's being shopped. Good job of it, 'tho, except for the crazy grain that only we anal retentives would notice. Whatever, it's still a great endorsement of O/A for the young crowd! |

So, some photo geek doesn't understand the allure of a textured black top.
Not feminine enough... |

Well done by the graphics dept. My daughter recognized it as an Ovation guitar just the same. .. Talbot |
