Adamas II 1682-7 #1570. Many Thanks to   my friend Karl from Germany for these very nice photos Description:  This early Adamas II is one of the rare 1682 models with the 1 7/8“ (48mm) wide neck. The guitar was heavily used, for example by the German country band “Bryan’s Time”. Therefore it was sent back to the Ovation factory in 2007 for a complete refurbishment. Now the guitar is like new, even the old-fashioned original electronics was replaced with the reengineered version of the 2005 Adamas reissue models. In addition it was fretted with gold fretwire.
