This is a beautiful, American-made, great sounding resonator with a built-in active pickup. I bought this directly from Jim Adams of Adams Resonator Guitars after playing it for several hours at the Resogat in North Carolina this summer. I hate to sell it, but I simply have too many guitars, and I'm concentrating on my 6 string at this point. It comes with a nice strong, but slightly worn TKL case that fits it like a glove. $900.00 plus shipping.

Thanks for looking.

Eric,

This is a square neck, lap style guitar.

Thanks,

Lee

I'm bumping this back to the top to see if there's any interest before I have to list this great guitar on eBay.

Hi Lee,
What is the string spacing on this guitar? Thanks.

John, I'm pretty sure it's the Fishman Classic Series Active pickup. Looking under the sound screen, the wiring from the battery looks like another Fishman that I have seen, but I can't say for sure. I can email Jim Adams and ask him.

Paul, the string spacing is a very comfortable 11/32. This is possible because the neck is just a hair wider than 2 1/2 inches at the nut.

Thanks for the interest.

I'd rather sell this outright, but I would consider trade offers at this point. Maybe a 6 string resonator or a Weissenborn.

Lee- I have a Gold Tone Weissenborn with Sunrise pickup to trade. I also have a Gold Tone 6 string squareneck. I would trade both with TKL cases for the Adams if you are interested.
