For sale is a beautiful Adams Curly Maple Professional resonator guitar. I bought this guitar new in February of this year. Solid maple top, back, and sides. Walnut fretboard. It has a large body/ soundpost/open body chamber which yields a loud, punchy, and nicely sustaining guitar. The body dimensions are very similar to Beard's E body. It has mostly Beard parts: Beard coverplate, Beard spider bridge, Beard maple/ebony bridge inserts, and Beard nut. The tuners are Grover.
Adams sells these for $1800 new. My guitar has a couple upgrades to that price. It has a Schertler Basik Reso Pickup ($300+ new), an Allen RS-2 Tailpiece ($100), and a Schaller Strap Lock ($25).
The guitar came with a couple cosmetic blemishes. There are some hardly noticeable imperfections in the finish which are too faint to be photographed. The cosmetic flaw I tried to photo is the slight gap between where the fretboard meets the neck. You will notice this if you are looking at the guitar in your hands. If you’re not trying to notice it in my photos or in person, it’s hardly an issue. Other than that I have put a little wear on it. There are some light finish scratches in places, a couple dings here and there, some small white scuffs on the lower bout where I just barely rubbed against a white wall, and a small black smudge on the lower bout binding. All that said, guitar is in Excellent ++++ condition.
$1600 will cover the shipping on this. Thanks for looking.

This Fellows is a piece of art. Look at the grain of the wood. Looks that good and sounds great to boot.
