Location: Phoenix AZ | For Sale: 2007 NAMM CUSTOM SHOP ADAMAS
This guitar was featured at winter NAMM 2007 as an example of what the Adamas Custom Shop (remember that?) could do. And what a DOOZIE of an example. Not known at the time, but this very special and one of a kind guitar would basically serve as the prototype to the OFC II guitar that would come 3 years later. Of course this one has some added twists.
- Adamas 2080 woven graphite top, Gloss finished
- Fiberglass hand laid contour bowl, Gloss finished
- LX scalloped bracing
- No body edging, no hatch door
- Epoxy dovetail neck block
- 1 11/16 gloss neck
- Satin chrome Sprezel tuners
- VIP 5 Preamp
Here's a little added feature ...
it comes with the special Carbon Fiber finish hardshell case.
I'm only selling this to make room for something new coming in. I am the original owner and it has never, ever left my house. The guitar (and case) is 100% perfect, mint, new, absolutely not a smudge on it. Of course it plays and sounds like a dream.
Price is $3650. which includes FedEx 2 day delivery in the US
Photos can't describe how stunning this guitar is, and taking photos of something that is basically solid gloss is near impossible. There is more info an photos on my website www.ovationgallery.com
Email or PM me if you have questions. |

Good luck with the sale.
.
Just had a thought... whoever buys this from Dave will receive a Not-So-Uncommon Slipkid Trinket disc. That is if you don't already have one.
.
There... if that doesn't expedite the sale of a $3.6k guitar, nothing will! |

This is probably the last chance to get anything even remotely like this. |

The only cat's eye that's ever really gotten my attention. Great instrument, but out of my league. Good luck with the sale Dave. |

Is that the last Pre-Fender Namm guitar? |

I think it's just a little epoxy and dovetail. |

Custom guitars is one thing, but I can imagine what Al went through to get them made. They are absolutely amazing and I love mine. And will never let it go!

I've come to realize that the term "it's a keeper" is pretty much like "til death do us part."
Sounds good at the time but things can change. |

All my guitars came to me with great stories and all are sentimental. For some of my guitars, I hope that the right money never comes along, but for others, I wouldn't be too upset if the right money came along..... |
