Adamas II

The Adamas II line of guitars (6-string and 12-string) followed the introduction of the original Adamas and featured the same basic design and materials, but without some of the deluxe ornamentation.  For example, the Adamas II was fitted with a standard Ovation neck, headstock and bridge.  The composite fiber soundboard, scalloped bracing and beautiful wood epaulets surrounding the soundholes are shared with the original Adamas.  The pickup and electronics are also common - the famous 2 walnut knob configuration with stereo output.  The example shown below, model 1681-8, is a 1995 version in exquisite condition.  The volume and depth of tone from this fine instrument is truly amazing.
