Location: Upper Left USA | Offered to the OFC is an Adamas 1598CG with OHSC for $945 plus shipping. The CG stands for Cadillac Green, which shows only under bright lighting. It is a smoove top with an excellent voice and the Optima Preamp.
Action is excellent, in fact I have pinched the strings some for finger style and have it set just high enough to support strumming without the buzz. This has been my main stay player at church and is very versatile.
Only issues are a 1/8” hairline scratch up on the peg head and a repaired (with the right stuff and support from CT.) Straploc button. It is a wonderful guitar but I have been bitten by the Adamas texture-top bug and I need to scratch.
Some pictures are in my gallery and I can send more if you email me

This really is an incredible sounding & playing machine...Woody has it set absolutely perfectly, and it is a fitting testimony to the craftsmanship that the high-end O's & A's are famous for...
Shake yer piggy bank...break the news over a really nice dinner date, but buy this guitar! You will NOT BE dissapointed!
Did I mention that Woody is not only a super guitar tech' - but he's a great guy who's OFC & eBay reputations are most honorable as well... :cool: |

Location: Upper Left USA | One of the Ebayers asked me about shipping to the "Land of Oz" (Australia).
I went to USPS.GOV and it seems mighty expensive and limiting! About $250!
Anyone have any experience or comment to help a bloke out? |
