Ovation Ozaki Yutaka Signature 12-String Model by Adamas 20 Limited Production
Miraculous arrival of the limited production of 20 guitars!
Model "1685OZ" was released in 2002 as a memorial model for Yutaka Ozaki's memorial 10 years.
At that time, there were two models released as Yutaka Ozaki's signature model, the 6-string type was 1681OZ (Black) and the 12-string type was 1685OZ (Blue).
The 6-string type was limited to 50 pieces, while the 12-string type was limited to 20 pieces.
The 6-string type is sometimes seen in the used market.
The 6-string type is sometimes found in the used market, but the 12-string type was originally produced in small quantities and has never been seen on the market.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Yutaka Ozaki's death, and TC Gakki has been fortunate enough to have this valuable model in stock!
The basic specification is Ovation's Adamas II.
Carbon graphite top and rilacord back.
Deep-ball, leaf-hole design with a 5-piece mahogany and maple neck.
Fingerboard is ebony, and the bridge is ebony in the catalog, but it looks like walnut.
The preamp is an OPTIMA.
The difference from Adamas II is that ebony fretboard is used instead of walnut fretboard, and the bridge is ebony.
As a Yutaka Ozaki signature model, the 12th fret has an inlay of fallen leaves, the position marks are made of pearl instead of maple, and the headstock has a silhouette of the same silhouette used in live performances in luxurious pearl design.
Yutaka Ozaki's use of the 12-string is as follows
The scene of Yutaka Ozaki using a 12-string guitar is the last song at LIVE CORE Tokyo Dome, "Boku ga boku ni ita suru toshite" (For me to be me).
It is difficult to identify the model because the logo is erased in the video, but it is probably an early model with Adamas II wood knobs.
This is a reissue of a signature model, so the specifications are different from the model he actually used, but there is no doubt that it is still a memorial piece.
This guitar will bring back your memories and stories about Yutaka Ozaki, and it will be an irreplaceable piece of guitar.
The guitar has been re-necked and fretted after arrival, and is in such playing condition that you may not think, "It's a 12-string guitar, so it can't be helped".
This is a rare opportunity, so please consider it positively!
5 year warranty on adjustments.
