Adamas W681-TA Export
Although Ovation stopped producing the original textured top Adamas and Adamas II for the US market in 1998, they continued to produce a limited number of textured top models for export. The example shown below, which is a 2002 model that I acquired in 2006, is quite frankly one of THE best sounding acoustic Adamas guitars I have ever owned. The model is W681-TA and it is acoustic only which no doubt has something to do with why it sounds so good. Deep bowl, non-cutaway with ebony bridge, fingerboard and tuner buttons. The top is a woven graphite finished in a Blueburst fade. The outer blue is a special textured paint and the inner gray area is bare carbon fiber soundboard. Hardware is gold Schaller and the saddle and nut have been upgraded to bone.
