I once used tightbond ll and floor sanding dust to fill very large gaps in a wood floor. Gallon jug glue glue glue mix in the floor sanding dust as it was the same color. Took some straps and stomped them into it a after the hole was filled . It got hard as a rock. Hit with the floor sander and you'll never know there was a 2" gap there. I think the big thing with 2 And 3 is the water resistance. But I still use 2 for wood to wood repairs.

Never knew there was a II or a III. I don't get out much.

Probably my favorite Hamer ever with @cmatthes's Cadillac green Monaco 3 is a very near second. (apologies for posting @django49's guitar, but I keep the photo always quickly available). 😉

You're going to love it! I sold my Vintage P Bass after I got my 2 Tec. Pretty much equal weight. The Cruise with EMG's just sounds so much better!

Yeah those leg surgeries are often worse than the actual chest procedure and that is brutal! I have friends who say the leg took longer to heal than the chest. I had 1 vein removed: it’s still giving me hipster 6 months: the scar just won’t settle. That aside, I feel great! Glad your dad is still with us 👍🙏🙌 I’m back at FedEx humping/delivering 60/70 large parcels on my truck per day! It’s a good work out 😉

Das ist erstaunlich!!! Gut gemacht, mein Freund!

@django49 You oughta post a pic anyway, even if it's not-for-sale. That custom super pro is drool worthy.

Good luck with the search. I guess I have owned at least one of each of those, except the Newport 90. All of them were great. The only one of the lot left here is a Super Pro custom order, which I never expect to sell. These things just do not pop up as often as they once did. And prices have sure changed!

Dad had two bypass surgeries. The first they cut his leg to harvest the arteries from the knee to the ankle. It gave him more trouble than the actual surgical site, once he got used to his breast plate moving a little! The second surgery they only cut a slit at the top of his lower leg and at his ankle and pulled the vein out like a magic trick! It was so less invasive. He was actually on a medical talk-radio show in Orlando and explained the advancements between the two surgeries (16 years apart). Dad bought a treadmill. That was easiest. No travelling or weather to worry about. He used to walk while he watched the evening news. Good luck dropping the weight. You'll be amazed how much better you'll feel. I've lost 60 pounds over the past ten years. Walking and light weights only. Heart is good and so is my health. Now, I'm worried about getting hit by a truck!

Good Lord, you're like the guitar ad Indiana Jones finding and getting both at once is insane. Was the bound one modified for the extra knob or ordered that way? Both look fabulous. Congratulations!

And: There is still another one from 1981 for below 2k Euros. Looks like it needed some TLC, though... https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/hamer-vector-flying-v-gitarre-1981/3493964339-74-9179

Shame this isn’t in Canada…

what a find

That's what got me! I had slowed down a little over the years but put it down to being in constant pain from an unrelated nerve problem (spine/neck) manifesting as pain in my neck / head. I've been on meds for that for too long (strong pain meds) so thought my tiredness was down to that. I would never have guessed that I had heart diesease. The 3 bad blocks were 95% blockage! Dangerous. Anyways, I had 1 long vein removed from my left arm to make 3 new arteries. Recovery seemed slow at 6 months but my surgeon tells me that's quick: he said he had some my age (I'm 61) still off work after 2 years. I feel good now: very good actually! Jus' need to lose a pound or too

I saw that ad, too, and was thinking of my (long ago sold) 83 Vector in similar condition. But I don't dig the Body form, mainly playing seated. Congratulations and: May they be PLAYED LOUD!

What, no vintage s ?

Haha. I can’t stop. 🤪

Looks like they are straight out of a time capsule - congrats!!

Score of the year, I'd say! Good argument for not sleeping. Congrats and enjoy!

I've played the butchered Special and the Prototype 12 at the Rockford store. The Special is in rough shape, obviously modified, and not worth 1/2 what they're asking. The photos of the 12 string do not accurately reveal the condition of the guitar. I didn't notice any structural damage, but it's been very aggressively used and shows a lot of finish wear. If you're interested, I'd call and ask them for an in-hand description and close-up photos or a FaceTime once-over.

A four digit Vector?
