Location: Boise, Idaho | I got a very good deal on my 99 Collector after no one bid on it on ebay. I am convinced it was because the pictures showed a pile of dirty underwear in the background. Same with cleaning the guitar. People figure the guitar isn't any good if you don't take a good picture. |

Sorry you have to sell it. Even sorry-er I don't have the funds.
It is a good deal at that price and I hope the right Buyer happens to you.
BTW - NEVER place flammible objects on your stove! |

Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba CANADA | Just saw an episode of NOVA (on PBS...) where they showed that stock market traders could be manipulated by playing them sad music (stock prices tanked whether there was any rationale to it or not...).
I'm sure Mark In Boise is right about the presentation effecting the sellability of a guitar. When I look at the galleries on www.ovationtribute.com, with sweeping DeMille-like vistas and panoramic pastoral scenery, it makes me want to go buy Ovations (whether I can afford them or not, lol).
Empty pizza boxes and dog poop just makes me sad... I hope someone buys your Adamas. |

Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | I must be missing something here. This looks like a beautiful and fantastic 12 string Adamas guitar for less than a grand and all I see are comments about dog poop in the background?
I feel like I missing something? Like, does this guitar have problems? |

Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | Thanks Dave. Didn't you used to own this type of 12 string...an Adamas II model? What were your impressions? I've never played this model but I really like my Melissa Etheridge model. One would think that this one would be even nicer with the deep bowl. |

I called and we made the deal on the phone. Jack is kind enough to drive an hour and a half (each way) to go pay for it, pick it up, and ship it to me. Great friend or what?!!!

| SHE IS SOLD!!! Thank you Jim and Jack, this will help alot, I know it will be well taken care of. It is good to see it go to someone on the forum. Thank you very much Mike for all your help! I have a new theory, that all the good people in this world must play Adamas or Ovation guitars, because I have'nt met a bad one yet. If anyone is interested the dog, the dog poop and the pizza box are still for sale. |
