Punkavenger Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I bought this a few months back but I never gave it it a proper introduction to the club. Ladies and Gents ...Introducing Mr. Hamer VANGUARD USA !!! With newly installed WCR pickups (applause, crowd noise etc) Sounds fantastic, light and easy to play .... basically mint condition (that I was going to put away and save but I like playing it too much) Oh well, someone's gotta do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottcald Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Awesome. The sparkle finishes I've seen have all been cool. You need to play it. I'll go ahead and call dibs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakeboy Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 What a beautiful guitar! I have. Les Trem 2 on my Artist Korina HB and it is an incredible trem unit. More solid than the Bigsby, less moving parts, and when tweaked right it can almost give me the throw of my Strat. Almost. I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The color changes significantly depending on the light source. In certain light it looks straight silver. In warmer light it has a "champagne" color. And sometimes it almost has a greenish cast. 12 hours ago, Ua D said: That one was too nice for me to mess up. glad you like it. Thanks Ua D ... it was a pleasure doing business with you.
