Members timrocker Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Add my name to the disappointed Hamer fans. I have a Hamer Korean import that I like a lot. Had some hope of someday owning the USA or Custom Shop version. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had a super cheap import Hamer Flat-top, but I can't find any pics of it right now. It was actually a pretty damned awesome guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thefyn Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Really? That is sad. Yes: whenever I picked one up, I had the urge to buy a keyboard tie and braces...But they were well made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundgardener75 Posted December 11, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 There was a used double cutaway hollowbody at the GC in Lake Forest that was $299.99, obnoxious orange finish, but it played really nice. Wish I had the cash, the wife would hate the sight of that thing. Here I was wishing to have owned a hot pink Californian too, the young n00b in me wanted to have bragging rights for the most ridiculous looking 27-fretter ever. Sad day for Hamer, but could be a great day for Guild... if they get the right people to make those killer electrics like the S-100, Bluesbird and the Starfire.

Yep, those 27 fretters make a great shred machine. Extra points for neon colors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
