This recently-made odd duck is branded “ADM” and is clearly an Ovation rip, right down to the headstock, body shape, electronics style, and what-have-you. It’s a thin-bowl design with a ply top and it’s rugged, sounds decent, is a fast player, and is ready to go.
You have to wonder if all of the molds Kaman was using for Applause and import Ovation Celebrity instruments just wound-up with other companies in that region of the world because it’s basically a carbon copy of an old Celebrity-style guitar.
