torca Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 There is one for sale at Cotten Music.Not sure if it is stated as Adirondack top but I thought the Smeck prototypes were all made with the Adi tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jannusguy Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 i got my smeck prototype from fullers. they told me it was a sitka top. after receiving it, i contacted don at gibson montana for more info, he told me it was adi. the 4 or 5 they made as prototypes for a jackson browne signature model were all adi tops according to him. i believe the one currently on fuller's site is also from that limited run, which would make it an adi top. another from that run just sold on ebay a few weeks ago. seller listed it as adi/madagascar. it was 1 number off of my serial number. best sounding guitar i own. fullers advertises it at 3400.00. i paid 2800.00. buy the guitar. you'll be glad ya did!

Yggdrasil Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 The variations between the Roy Smeck reissues extend to the logo or lack thereof, the inlays & the nut width: mine (2002 Reissue) is 1 13/16" nut (Fuller's & Cottten's are 1 7/8, & 2 inches!).

brians356 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 My 2007 Jakson Browne prototype has an Adirondak top, and the nut width is 1-14/16". String spacing (outside edge of E strings) at the nut is 1-11/16". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
