Location: 6 String Ranch | Have to ask the factory for a refurb price.
It does have a s/n, 25something. I'd still wonder about the bowl, did it get smashed at some point? |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Just a WAG, but I would say you could buy a pretty nice A2 in nice condition for about $1200. This one on ebay might go for about $500. I would predict it will cost way more than $700. to bring it up to the level of the $1200. one. If you love the fucged up color, the weird headstock, bad nut, worn and filthy fretboard, who-knows-what neck, blistered paint around epaulets, banged up bowl and nobody knows if the electrionics even work - then this is just the bargin you're looking for. Dave
PS - I've seen that color before. Is it deep mauve? Vaguely reminds me of the bathroom floor in Temps hotel room. |

Location: Ft. Lauderdale, Florida | Update on STRTANGE ADAMAS II in FT. Lauderdale...
I live in Ft. Lauderdale and have sent numerous e-mails to Yulefindither, the guy with the auction... He has yet to respond even though he claims:
"Emails will be answered quite promptly Mon.-Fri. from 9:00 - 3:00...
YOUR SATISFACTION IS MY MAIN GOAL... JUST EMAIL ME AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM ASAP...
I was prepared to go over there with a new set of strings, a guitar tech friend and an amp to test this beast...
He must have something to hide and doesn't have the stones to respond...
Here's his ebay history profile:

Seems he no rookie on e-bay, but he has managed to piss of 20 people...
I could e-mail copies of this entire post to all his bidders but I think I'll leave this alone for now...

Location: Minden, Nebraska | I was looking at this guitar and couldn't figure out why all my antennae were vibrating, so I looked here for a thread and am thankful to have found this one.
FWIW, I just emailed the seller to inquire about a case and had a reply within five minutes. (There isn't one.)
Also, when one does that much business on ebay it is hard to not annoy some people.....
It's still a really funky Adamas, though. |
