I believe I'm well past denial on that and dipping into my seconds on childhood.

The goal now is to sell a few and be ready for an Adamas 12.

Yeah, yeah... this is all well & good but if you only had that Acadamy to hang up next to it then you'd really have something. ;)

I hope claims process is working out for you.

instead of a 12 just get a bone or ceramic saddle. Much better.

Lucky guy; For what it's worth: I put a bone saddle in my 1581-5 (when I put in a new pickup system)... Very happy with that.

"So what's the story on how you got it?"

Randy, aka NorthCountry and I are both fairly cash poor and had some specific GAS/Needs to fill.

I sent a Hamer, a Deacon 12 and just recently a 6578T 12 that I got to strum and repack for his house.

Soon to go to market are a VXT, 1581-8 and some stuff.

Where would I enquire about the Bone Saddle?

I am most surprised about the way the Deacon plays. That has to be one of the nicest necks I have ever seen on any guitar. And yeah that Hamer is a beauty and plays the way I like. With the additon of this, what I call... " The Stealth Elite" 12 string I should now be outfitted with every guitar I want to fit every need for all the band projects I have going right now.
With that being said Mike has recieved a fantastic Adamas 1 with upgraded electronics. I think it is great when members of a group can deal like this. It can make life easier. I had a few offers from some other members which were all interesting but Mike had the Hamer and that caught my eye a while ago too.
Good deal for us both I think. I miss the Adamas already though. It has been a real luxury to have two standard neck acoustics for the solo gig's.

Thanks again Mike

Randy

Mike, If that signature inside becomes a problem and you think there is a resale problem, I'll suck it up and trade you straight across for my Adamas II verson of that. (:

I have to admit that I fell in love with that guitar the first time I saw the picture of it. Just couldn't afford it. Congratulations on the aquisition of the "Tone Monster". If you EVER think you need to get rid of it, contact me first! "dibbs"
