bigolsparky Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 First of all, props to Shawn, who is the HFC enabler in this transaction. I have been jonesing for this guitar for quite some time now and it was bound to happen eventually. I have worked for a company located in turn 3 of the Talladega Speedway for most of my adult life (over thirty years). I also live in the city of Talladega, so this guitar has a special meaning to me outside it being a Hamer which I have always loved, even before there was a Talladega. While my photography is pretty bad, the location of the shots is unique. This is a NAMM Talladega and the top is wonderful. This wonderful piece of craftsmanship has finally made it's way to me and is the first Talladega to call Talladega, HOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadroller Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 WOW! Absolutely stunning! Look at that top! Grandma Toadroller worked at NH Motor Speedway in Loudon for a number of years. Sadly, there's no Hamer Loudon model. Actually, that's probably a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTMN Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 As a NASCAR fan for most of my life and seriously since '88 I have wanted a Tally to go with my Daytona. That is a great looking 'Dega you bought there! Enjoy it well! And Loudly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
