Pretty sure I saw that one from photos of a storage unit some guy outside of chicago bought. He posted for values on a Facebook Hamer Group a bout 1-2 weeks ago. I can't find the post any longer but there were 3 Korina - a junior that looked like that, a Korina V / Vector, and a limited korina artist. There was also a few others, including the green artist he has up for sale too, I think.2 points

No shit, Sherlock. There’s a lot to unpack here with a typically long Django post, but I stand by my snark.2 points

Ebay is chock-full of interesting korina Hamer offerings right now. My favorites are the two listings for korina Artist P90s "made in 1990..." with the same guitar and pics from different sellers in Japan.2 points

I'm sure this has been said before elsewhere (besides being just plain common sense), and I think that it's been mentioned in amp-related literature, too; but if you're gonna 'improve' on a vintage amp by irreversibly monkeying with the cab, do it with a new/replacement cabinet, not the original cab! Joe might like to treat his vintage gear as if they were disposable, but I don't know of anybody else who would do or could afford to do that.2 points

SO fulla shit! Great, now dorks clad in their (OLP) JB bathrobes are going to devalue their vintage combos. Remember to crank your Variacs up to 180v!2 points

For a while I've been thinking that if I ran across a nice Junior at a fair price, I'd jump on it. One showed up this morning on eBay. Good price, but the seller's feedback made me say "not today". So here it is. I hope one of you has bigger gonads than this old man. And that the seller is better than his feedback suggests. 1999 Hamer USA Special Junior P90 Electric Guitar Natural Finish + Hard Case | eBay Good luck1 point

While I'm pleased to see Hamer guitars finally getting their recognition as really great instruments, the prices on some of them are insane what some sellers are asking. So, the question was "Who's Buying"?, at the prices shown at the beginning of this post............ no one.1 point

“Guitar builders”…🙄. Buncha over-promising, under-delivering WEIRDOS, every one of ‘em. I’ll never again commission another custom guitar. Just not worth the hassle and frustration.1 point

No clue! lol I'm still on pace to have it done in a year, which means end of the summer, but I know he hasn't started yet.1 point

@zorrow introduced me to them the other day. I found it interesting although I wouldn‘t listen more often I think. I‘m rather waiting for Queen II 2026 remix to arrive by the 27th. Can‘t wait to hear the original guitar orchestration decyphert in some way.1 point

Missed it by *this* much. I think you meant to say: This band has: ✅ Real humans involved ✅ Actual instruments (not just a laptop having feelings) ✅ Music was, in fact, created ✅ At least some people genuinely like it If you like… I can type up a more detailed critique too.1 point

One of my rare claims to fame is that I have history with the original which was still all-black at the time. It was 1975 so I'd only be 16 years old. In my town, there was an old 1920's dance hall which had been converted into a swanky nightclub which was always stone-dead empty on a Thursday night, so the club owner decided to experiment with a 'Rock Night' featuring a live band. One of these bands was UFO, unknown to practically everyone in the place at the time, but just having released their seminal 'Force It' record. MS was playing a black Gibson V which was subsequently painted by his roadie in the famous two-tone scheme using masking tape and a white rattlecan. Andy (Sneap) and myself talked to MS about this over several backstage beers we shared with hin at a festival we played (Leyendas Del Rock in Alicante, Spain) and he confirmed that it was the same guitar. He told us that he still had it, that he'd never part with it, and that it would never go back out on the road because it was too special and too precious a part of his history to risk being damaged. He also said that it was still the best-sounding V he'd ever played. He also referred to his then-current Dean V's as 'throwaways' ..........1 point

When I was a kid, every dad in my neighborhood had this album at the top of their record stacks. For YEARS.1 point
-
This came out when I was a kid, and I really haven't looked at it since, although the songs have been present (not least because of being unavoidable for a long stretch). Looking at it now, after a career that involved a decent amount of work-related travel and hotel stays, the first thing that comes to mind is that someone must have pulled the fire alarm. Then you look closer and everyone is too completely dressed for that to be the case. But the crowd waiting for the all-clear to go back to their rooms is something I've experienced more than once, and it looks pretty much like this.1 point

While not necessarily my favorite album as a kid, I probably spent too much time lusting after the checkerboard Standard on the back cover...finally acquired an all-mahogany 4-Digit (#0703) that was the perfect candidate for the conversion and let Stike and Shane go to town on it. Dream realized 35 years later!1 point

My love for music started with this vinyl album I bought on my 14th birthday 1972 for 29 German Marks (= € 15) at our local music store. Everything was exotic and a revelation to me: the music, the foldout cover, the artwork, even the smell. I played it with 16 revolutions per minute on my dad's turntable (Swiss Lenco L75) checking out and copying the riffs of Mick Taylor thinking it was Keith! Still got it, listen to it at least twice a year and would miss every crack. Only the enclosed postcards are missing, sent them trying to convince my friends... Great article about it's graphic history, his name is HAMERsveld: https://bestclassicbands.com/rolling-stones-exile-cover-art-van-hamersveld-8-10-21/1 point

Let's take a minute to consider how this video is taking over the internet. 1,200,000 views in 12 days. And 10,000 comments. Seems a lot of people are sharing this video with their friends. The comments are gold, by the way. "It's abundantly clear that these guys are on the frontlines of whatever this is." "This is the Future we were Primused" "Finally, music 2 has dropped" "when even the riff has a french accent" "Best sounding salt and pepper shakers on the current market"1 point

...chest pain, discomfort, or pressure caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle... Reminds me of when I was a kid and was playing King Crimson's "Discipline" on a loop. On one occasion, when the title track was playing, my mother called to me from the other room. "Michael...what is that?" "It's King Crimson" "Well it's making me nervous!"1 point

Couple of points: 1. And, 2. ...and "Angine De Poitrine Latrine" is pain, discomfort or pressure caused by a lack of ruffage in one's diet.1 point

ok...here's the thing... I've watched this several times now. I can't seem to stop. The drummer (who is an animal, by the way) is cracking me the f**k up with that acetylene tanks helmet and his dangling nose penis, swaying as he plays. I sent the clip to a non-musician buddy of mine because I knew he would pee himself laughing at it. He asked me if they were serious. I didn't understand the question. "I mean," he said, "do they know they're ridiculous, or are they trying to be serious?" I said, "I think if at any point in your life, you find yourself applying polka dot paint to your bare feet before a performance, you've pretty much thrown 'serious' out the window." He said he hadn't. noticed that, which I found curious in itself. ...and what's up with the frets on this instrument? ETA: "Angine de poitrine" in English is angina or angina pectoris. It refers to chest pain, discomfort, or pressure caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, commonly resulting from coronary artery disease. It is often described as a squeezing or tight feeling in the chest.1 point
