At the
Winter NAMM Show in 2007, Ovation launched their "Adamas
Custom Shop", featuring various configuration options that
could be selected for their Adamas line of guitars. Several highly
customized examples were built specifically for the show and through the
good folks at Lost
Art Vintage Instruments, I was able to obtain the NAMM sample guitar
shown below. This guitar started life as a standard model 2080,
which is the Adamas NWT (new woven top) but thatand the VIP preamp is
about as far as the similarities go. Unlike a stock 2080, this
Custom Shop guitar features the following: Adamas I style suspended top
mounting ring, Blackburst top finish, top is entirely gloss finished,
hand made fiberglass contour bowl gloss finished, maple neck is gloss
black finished, gloss black peghead and satin chrome Spretzel
tuners. This guitar is about as black, bold, shiny and stunning as
you could possibly imagine. Click
