Location: seattle, wa | never had a blue guitar with a bunch of sound holes but I can't seem to get it out of my mind so...
here are my 2 shiny bowls...for sale as a pair(for now) $1600 plus $150 freight to lower 48
12 string is a factory rebuilt 1968 balladeer...it's been on here before and is still beautiful, and loud with zero structural issues. the only changes I have done since it came from the east coast are:
new Stewmac tuners and a new 9158 deluxe case
6 string is K1111 Balladeer reissue #17, I just received...not a mark on it...lightweight, beautiful and loud
it too is now sitting in a new 9158 case
if you are closer than the freight figure, refund will be sent...I'll get photos up as soon as I can shrink them.

Location: SoCal | I'd keep the K1111. An Adamas sounds good and it sounds different. But better? I donno.......

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | Just to chime-in.... There are waaay more Adamii out there than K-1111's
You will see another blue Adamas before you will see another Shiny bowl Balladeer.
But I also sold my K1111, so...

Location: Phoenix AZ | Just my opinion I would keep the K1111. Those are special. Adamas is special as well, but as OMA says there are a thousand of them for every single K1111 you'll ever see. |

Location: SoCal | Standingovation and OMA know of which they speak. I agree. I would never sell a K1111 to buy an Adamii....... |
