I started following Banker on instagram a few months ago. Seems like they are most known for their Korina Vs and Explorers. There are some pretty impressive posts of him doing headstock overlays with india ink and things like that. They are an "authorized Gibson parter" which I'm guessing means they are allowed to use the correct body and headstock shapes? Not sure exactly. Whatever the deal is, they look like really nice guitars though I'm sure they are very expensive. https://www.instagram.com/mrbankercustom/

PSA though I am interested in this one. 🤩 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hamer-Special-USA-1980s-Black-RARE-40-YEAR-OLD-GUITAR/293783402882?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Seems like a good deal for an 80s checkerboard special. Other than the weird paint chips on the headstock do you experts see any issues? Does the bridge look crooked? Cheers!

RIP EVH. Hard to imagine a world without him. His influence will live on as long as there continues to be music.

My tribute to Gary Moore
analogsystem replied to analogsystem's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Thanks! I love his Jimi tribute concert. Easily some of the best Hendrix covers I've ever heard. -
https://soundcloud.com/dave-webb-music/blues-for-gary Here is my latest song, a tribute Gary Moore (RIP). He remains one of my heroes and an inspiration. Every note is electric guitar. I used my Gibson Firebird with a Lollar FB pickup in the neck and a Bareknuckles Black Dog (full sized HB) in the bridge. The tone is an early 80s Rat Pedal into a Silverface Champ. I also used a Silverface Princeton Reverb for some of the tracks and various delays, uni-vibe, etc. Please let me know what you think and thanks for listening! (sorry, I can't figure out how to embed the player)

Eclipse appreciation thread. Any takers?
analogsystem replied to polara's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
I would love a black one. I'd put the Lollar Firebird pickup in the neck and route the bridge for a full size hubucker (probably a vintage hot type). That would be some tone. -
22 fret, hardtail, not wide / thin neck? How about a gibson SG? Hamer studios play like butter too. Also, my chaparral is 24.75" with a neck on the small side of medium, but not wide and flat. More rounded.

Tell us how you broke your neck

My Hamer Studio which I bought new in the mid 90s…..I was playing a really crappy basement house show in about 2004 and the leather end of my strap ripped through the stitching. I had strap locks too, but clearly they didn't help in this situation. If I remember correctly I had my guitar just hanging off me as it was some droney feedback freakout part. The guitar dropped right off my body and cracked right behind the nut. Got it fixed and it sounds and plays great to this day. Quite the battle scar though.
