Cheers guys... I'm really looking forwards to this, I stupidly swapped my old Artist for a strat a few years ago when I needed cash, I couldn't move the artist at $1300 but sold the strat for $1800.. Go figure... ) Cheers a heap Chris... I have been waiting and hoping it would come back...

i'd telephone too if I had your number..

emailed, and PM'd....

No it's not a Hamer , but it's sooo nice I figured I'd show it.... Nope, unfortunately, It's not mine... It is finished and on it's way to the new owner, I reckon Stu will be updating the website when he gets a minute.. Back on the waiting list for me... Cheers Mick...

Thanks Jim, happy to help... Yeah you got the spelling correct, Lol.. Thanks! re Mastertone, no, nothing whatsoever to do with me, although i have met Tony Snape a few times, he's from South Australia too, I was aware of his gear when he was starting up Mastertone pickups, He used to drop into...

Too much down force on the TOM can cause it to bend/bow...

Maybe look at the carby/float needle and seat, if it's sticking it can either starve your motor of fuel or flood the engine... They are pretty inexpensive to replace.

For me it's this new one,

All finished, it arrived today and I have to say it's absolutely stunning, the build quality is fantastic and it plays like a dream, , Stu's workmanship is top notch, and he's a great guy too.. Thanks for your patience allowing me to post this on here.. I know it's about Hamers, I'm a huge...

Yep, no neck pickup pulling on the strings, no route for the neck pickup leaves more wood around the neck join too, there's a couple of reasons a Jr could have the edge over a special ? depends on the wood too though I guess, However, no height adjustment on the Jr bridge pickup could mean it's...

Try Allparts, IIRC they had some GS-3206-001 - Nickel Truss Rod Cover Screws

Well, time has moved on a bit, so has Stu @ BluesTone... my guitar should be more or less finished next week sometime, gotta say it's looking very very good... Can't wait to get a hold of this.. Stu cut me some thin slices of blackwood and lacquered them, these will be going in the center of...

Emailed you Thanks Mick
