Ovation The Adamas 2081WT

The Adamas Suspended Top is and always has been at the forefront of acoustic technology. The AST allows the top to vibrate more freely than conventional top-to-body systems and this advanced system is now available in our wood top models as well.

All our Adamas guitars are hand-made in the USA using only select AAA Grade solid spruce. Each top is finished with an ultra thin layer of satin urethane which gives the WT a warm look unmatched by conventional design. The top is then individually hand fitted into each suspended top system with precise attention to detail.

A New Look, A New Feel, A New Sound for Yamaha Guitars A-Series

A new generation of Yamaha acoustic-electric guitars is on the way. Yamaha Guitars is proud to expand on its successful line-up of acoustic-electric guitars with the unveiling of the new A-Series handcrafted guitars. Featuring a new look, a new feel and a new sound, the A-Series launches Yamaha into a previously untapped market segment by providing a professional instrument designed to be the workhorse of any steel-string guitarist's arsenal.

Offered in a dreadnought cutaway and a concert size cutaway, the A–Series represents a departure from the look of Yamaha's acclaimed FG Series and L Series guitars. From the new headstock design to the touch-of-class rosette and mahogany binding, Yamaha has focused on every detail to create the feel and playability
sought by today's acoustic-electric guitar player. Featuring a slim neck profile and a rounded fretboard edge, the A-Series delivers ease and comfort. Yamaha also increased its traditional string spacing and lowered the action to accommodate today's players. In addition, the semi-open pore finish on the necks of the A-Series maintains the wood's feel, yet also enhances playability.
