Bob Marley’s Ovation Adamas 1687-7

Bob Marley was seen playing an Ovation guitar on a live version of “Redemption Song” filmed sometime around 1980. The guitar was an Adamas model with a reverse beige burst finish, likely made sometime in the 70s.

The guitar was also pictured in several other photos of Bob Marley performing live, which indicates that the guitar was actually his, and was used regularly. Unfortunately, it’s unknown what happened to it and where it ended up after Marley’s death.
