All Activity

Does anyone remember who bought it first? Then what happened to it?

Kinda sad that his passing will be overshadowed by Dolly Partons... kind of like Farrah Faucet with Michael Jackson's passing It's astounding~ Time is fleeting Madness takes its toll But listen closely Not for very much longer I've got to keep control

Oh man, I loved that Sweet Transvestite.

I reported the ad as well and told them to check the IP address - it's going to show Morocco, not NC. Let's see if they do anything about it. I doubt they will...

I’d tap that (and then run away with the Jr.)

Looks like another one has left the building. I am sure that the Rocky Horror fans are having a rough day... Cool BC Rich Eagles in this are probably the only saving grace, but...

I mean, if you want to play Mississippi queen all day, they are PERFECT. Just not sure why Hamer decided that the HOT P90 for the neck and CUSTOM P90 for the bridge was the way to go. They were taller than normal P90s, so they had to route out more material. I guess they didn't want the "standard" low out put SP90-1 pickups.

He also briefly listed a Danocaster BG, which is not there any longer. I hope nobody bought into that one. Likewise the TGP mods told me all was alright (despite no activity since 2019). Very suspicious.

I installed Regular Winds in a Gibson semi-hollow and the change was just as you describe - improved clarity and detail. The closest thing I've experienced were EMGs, but the Lollars are considerably less perfect in a good way. I have each on a push-pull that facilitates series / parallel wiring they sound great in either configuration.

Gotta love how she never took herself too seriously.

Circling back to this to close the loop. I stopped agonizing about the price tag and the hassle of swapping pickups in this guitar and scooped a set of standard wind Lollar Imperials and installed them and they sound incredible in this guitar. Dramatically improved clarity and detail from having a pickup that isn't so bassy in both positions. Now the depth control on my amp is usable again with this guitar. Cleans are also much improved. If you've got a SuperPro the Lollars are a perfect match.

Uncle Ted and Dolly.

I've played a couple shows with the guitar player's new bands and they've all been great. Dude is a total ripper with some fun gear. I think he was using an EGC through a Diezel VHX the last time we played with them.

Curiously, it seems it remains active. But the one response asking a question also appears to be a "shill". Also, the "seller" hasn't got any activity since 2018. Hmm...

Note you can use a stereo jack to replace a mono jack, just don't wire the ring connection (or wire it to ground) I actually prefer this because it makes the plug more stable. There are other advantages as well.

The guitar is NOT A.I. of course. It seems to be a typical Korina Jr, just painted pink. It includes the very manly Seymour Duncan "hot" P90 pickup that many people love to hate. Different knobs and without the normal dogear-style pickup cover. Internet suggests it was sold once by L.A. Guitar Center "used" and then in a charity auction.

But seriously, the guitar is listed at over three thousand dollars (plus, shipping?) and the complete description is: "I really like the color of this guitar. This guitar is original except the tuners. These came with Dimarzio pickups which were the best you could buy at that time and complete the look of this one." No.

And yours is way cooler at half the price 👍

That's a different guitar. I doesn't have the matching headstock and has changed tuners. Same colour though, as far as I can tell and pretty close serial wise.

Hmmm maybe not then. This is the one I was referring to that I reached out to the seller back in late April this year (ignore the price, it’s in AUD): https://reverb.com/item/96170071-1980-hamer-special-blue?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=96170071

RIP Dolly

She will rightfully be remembered for a lot of good things and deeds. Perhaps her most significant contribution in my eyes was the creation of her Imagination Library. I grew up in a household full of books, and I learned to read at a very young age. My mother grew up incredibly poor and was instrumental in steering my sister and me toward formal education. IIRC, Dolly's father was illiterate, and that wasn't necessarily unique in early twentieth century Appalachia. She realized the opportunities that would be available to anyone who could effectively read and write. Truly a game changer for the poor and forgotten ones in society. When my first child was born, I had already purchased several books to read to her while my wife was pregnant. And while I didn't need the charity of a free book, a local literacy advocacy group provided us (and all new parents at local hospitals) with a free copy of Goodnight Moon. I later discovered it was Dolly's Imagination Library that helps subsidize and facilitate this benevolent service. Now that's a legacy worth celebrating.
