Location: SoCal | There is a -7 Adamas I 1688 12-str with OP-50, non-cutaway, deep bowl available (late 2003-2004); I am adopting it (again) if no one wants it.
I have one (-8) so it will not be played much.
It needs to be in the hands of someone who will play it. Absolutely gorgeous. Post or email me if interested.

| Tony, pardon my ignorance, but what the heck does -7 and -8 mean? |

Location: Upper Left USA | That is what these guy's would like you to think. I believe that these numbers are actual factory codes for the power level of each guitar to relieve GAS. It is similar to a Dungeons and Dragons role in a melee. Obtaining a higher number will prevent the enemy attack (GAS) from winning. Having an "A" behind the number as in Adamas or Al Dimeola gives a X3 to hit points. This does not apply to Applause.
The affects are not permanent though.
I am currently seeking a turn at the dice to see if I can thwart Tony's assault. I may end up selling some of my Hotels.
Wait, what game are we playing? |

Location: SoCal | The -8 Blue Reverse was changed a couple of years ago; considerably darker than the original. Below is a picture of the 1688 -8 next to two 1687 -7 6-strs (2-knobber on left, OP-24 on right)...

"I might have to sell some of my hotels"
"What game are we playing?"
I guess if you mix every single game together - you get the game of GAS, a high paced turn based geeky kid oriented but made for all ages game that includes operating, sliding down ladders and sending your item(s) to the mothership. |
