shankyboy Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I have always wanted a Talladega and the opportunity finally came. This is Hamer #6 in my stable and the first guitar I have ever owned with this kind of top. I have really enjoyed playing this guitar over the past couple of weeks.

Pieman Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Was there a certificate that identified the finish? Not many like that. Where did you find it? Very nice. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

django49 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 It is at least in the same ballpark as the "Tiger Eye" finish, which I used to have on both a Talladega and Talladega Pro. Sort of like "Root Beer". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Very nice! Tallies are great guitars. What does the back, of the body and the neck, look like? What year is it? Gabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixesandsevens Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I just wish the guitar came with a setting sun that was always shining on its face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
