I placed the Adamas I neck, headstock, and bridge on a 1537 and threw in some ebony tuners. I also tried to put some of the plastic binding on the right upper top to see what it would look like. | ||

I kinda' like the original walnut, but with the ebony tuners it seems like the dark plastic binding would go better with it. Then again, they may not be able to use a different binding because of the wood top. | ||
