TAKAMINE COLLINGS TAYLOR On the Ovation side, looks like they've moved most Adamas stuff back on the Ovation page. The old Adamas page is pretty stagnent still touting the 30th anniversary models that are no longer available and the Adamas custom shop which is just a pretty name for Lost Art Vintage. I haven't check other sites, but I'm guessing that it's pretty common for major site revamps every year after all the new NAMM introductions. | ||

If I ever custom order another Collings, I am asking you for the serial number of that D-42 and asking Colling to duplicate the looks (cept in a varnish ;) ) . | ||

I remain grateful and honored to see and hear these excellent guitars in the hands of folks who know how to play them, let alone be able to play them myself. Thanks for making it happen, Beal. I notice that the TNV760 models are missing from the list of professional models available on the Tak site. | ||

Meaning that they don't advertise it, but it's still available (for now) if you want to order one. The TNV760 (OM) and TNV460 (NEX) are within fractions of an inch identical guitars. I owned both and would actually get them confused. These two models are the most expensive regular production models in the Takamine lineup (for good reason) so I'm sure it doesn't make sense for them to continue building both.I notice that the TNV760 models are missing from the list of professional models available on the Tak site. | ||
