  1. Any interest in this one? I can take more pics if interested. This was a BCR Greg order. Pull vol and tone to split the pickups. All orig except for truss rod cover, Greg made a tortoise colored one. I'm missing the screw.
  2. Whats a good way to contact you on the eclipse?

  3. Hey,

  5. hi,

    Are you still looking for Korina Vectors?

  6. Hey cmatthes are you sporting a Shishkov chapeau???
  7. MAD SKILLZZZ Way to go Mike
  8. Wish I bonded with those necks, but after buying and selling 5 of them, I know to pass,them up when I find one. Beauty
  9. Make an Electraglide, all hog, with homage to a Duotone - have the holes drilled straight through. 2 unique Hamer designs in one!! Just being silly
  10. Point taken
  11. Wishing Mike all the best, and not bashing in any way. Just curious as to where the sudden surge of custom order interest came from Is it that Mike will do things Hamer wouldn't? 4d headstock for example. Amazing that they would be so against some small details that would have netted them a lot (relatively) more business. Is it that we can't get Hamers anymore, and this could be a last chance for Hamer style custom orders? Prior to Hamer shutting the doors there seemed to be a lack of custom orders being seen here.
  12. Anyone know what the neck profile is on these??.
  13. Did these have skinny necks, or maybe medium???
  14. Another Thank you. I own a "Dream Hamer" that Mr BCR facilitated, Easily the finest guitar I have had the pleasure of molesting. Wish I had ordered one other. meanwhile, I will keep my eyes peeled for an all Mahogany Monaco Elite - preferably TV yellow - something like that All the best in future endeavors. Let us know where you land, hopefully we can support you Thanks.
  15. hmmmmm small music store in Brooklyn that sold Hamers?? On Kings hwy by any chance???
  16. Thanks gentlemen, Sounds like the warm dj vocal thing went out with the "golden age" of radio. May just give the tube thing a shot anyway. Would like to start listening to vinyl again, and also see what tubes do for my CDs. Probably set the stereo up in my "office/guest bedroom" since it is a smaller room. Found a pair of Klipsch KM-4 Floorstanding Pair Speaker music Home Theater Surround Sounds on ebay for about $120 They have a 94 db sensitivity which should help them produce good volume with lower wattage. So all in for about $550 between the Heathkit and speakers. Good Value?? As previously stated, my current set up is good, but would like to check out what a decent?good? tube amp Is this a good starting point, should I hear a difference compared to the Arcam, or should I save up more $$ and go for higher quality tube amp? Thanks again!
  17. Chasing the Dragon.Fondly remember the sound of my dads old stereo?? system. Most vivd was the ddep warm sound of a DJs voice from the tuner.It was set up inside a console, with 1 big speaker enclosure built to sit in a corner. would like to see if its possible to get close to what I remember, so would like to get into tubes as economically as possible.Have been looking on evilbay at some older and "vintage" integrated systems. Questions - apparently a whole bunch 1) is it worh going older for less expensive, or can you do "modern" economically. I'm looking at the following units. Will these just end up costing more in the long run with maintenance and upkeep?? http://www.ebay.com/itm/111230282714?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649http://www.ebay.com/itm/271233482739?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l26492) these tend to be lower power units, and I'm not sure what speakers or what sensitivity would be best matched. I currently have a good solid state system Arcam Alpha 10 with B&W CDM7 speakers which I believe are rate @ 90 db I'm sure those speakers are a little too power hungry for 10-20 watt amps. again looking to go budget. I do have a powered subwoofer not in use if you think it would work well Appreciate any input - Merry Christmas
  18. Article here http://www.fender.com/features/starcaster-coronado/starcaster-maple-fingerboard-black/ Coronado now sports "fidel-trons" Starcaster now has a tune-o-matic bridge Those are the 1st differences that jump out at me Hmmmmm - the Starcaster would be cool to throw a bigsby vibramate on
