Update. I followed a combination of Marks advice from Victoria and the advice given here. I removed back panel, hit the jacks with deoxit and compressed air then removed and reseated the tubes. Most of the noise is gone. I don’t ever remember this amp being quiet like a modern amp so this may be the baseline. Any other Deluxe or clone owners want to share their experiences as far as noise…..

Good Lord that must have been a custom order for someone. Sweet. Congratulations. Edited to add…. My money says we built it for Ed Roman. Curious…..if you move it around in the light does the top “flip”? I’m betting it doesn’t. We built a few for Ed around that time with ridiculous tops and gold hardware. The tops were also stained to make the figure pop which Hamer typically didn’t do.

I can’t say I dislike the modification. I was just wondering why it looked different. I’m very grateful Greg spec’d these the way he did and I’m very happy to own one. I would have absolutely LOVED if they did at least one of these with a “Triple Threat” neck with thinner headstock but it never happened.

PSA: CME Hamers 8/22/23

Regarding the Daytona. I have no knowledge of that particular guitar just a general question to HFC because my memory is fading on some of these things….. Was Seafoam green offered in 1993 (which is the neck serial number). It seemed like most of the early ash bodied/maple neck Daytonas were 2 tone Sunburst or transparent colors. I thought the solid colors came with the switch to alder which came later. Does anyone else have an opaque color Daytona from 1993? -

No USA Daytona ever came with a truss rod cover. -

Does anyone have more photos of that 97 Vector? The listing has been pulled. I was looking for a picture of the back of the body……I suspect it has a lot of streaking based on the front picture. -
Greg spec’d the guitar to use lightest body wood available. I was the one that actually selected the bodies in the woodshop. The bodies from the TV run all came from the same board.
