Adamas, Innovation in Suspended Tops Serving the Musician
Since its inception, Adamas has stood out for its
Suspended Top technology that frees the soundboard and optimizes its vibrational modes. The MD80-NWT fully embodies this heritage: a
woven NWT top in carbon fiber/Kevlar, a specific
Quintad bracing, and a
Mid-Depth Contour body that combine modern comfort with stage performance.
For Whom and Which Styles
Designed for
intermediate to professional guitarists, the MD80-NWT excels in
live performance, studio, and home recording. Its quick response and clarity suit
fingerstyle,
dynamic strumming, pop, folk, and modern arrangements where precision, tuning stability, and feedback resistance are sought.
Sound Characteristics
The
carbon fiber/Kevlar top and
Quintad bracing deliver a bright attack, detailed mids, and sparkling highs with controlled bass. The
Mid-Depth fiberglass bowl enhances projection while limiting feedback and promotes a long, even
sustain. When amplified, the
OCP-1K pickup and
OP-Pro Studio preamp provide a clear, musical, and easily sculptable signal, while the
built-in tuner ensures tuning security in all situations.
