Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | I just spent way too much time on photoshop, modifying and adjusting pictures to come up with a preview of a wood-top Adamas. I placed the Adamas I neck, headstock, and bridge on a 1537 and threw in some ebony tuners. I also tried to put some of the plastic binding on the right upper top to see what it would look like.

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | Too much work for right now. I already spent a couple hours on it. What do you think about the Adamas binding? I kinda' like the original walnut, but with the ebony tuners it seems like the dark plastic binding would go better with it. Then again, they may not be able to use a different binding because of the wood top. |

Location: big island | a lighter wood-toned binding would look good. using one of the shades in the epaulettes would set it off
nicely. |

Location: Atlanta,Ga. | Have had it now for almost a year and it has opened up quite a bit.It is not really heavy on the bass side but it has clean ,crisp highs.I love playing it.I use elixer nanos lights and they are perfect for this guitar. |
