  1. I wondered about that! Everything I saw online said semi hollow, but looking inside I could definitely see open space under the pickups. Way cool! Thanks. šŸ‘
  2. Finally got a chance to make a few quick vids with my recently acquired gear & wanted to share a bit here. WARNING: Quality of video and especially of guitar playing is HIGHLY suspect. I hope to make some better-quality vids down the road, but as I mentioned I wanted to share these with y'all anyway. Apologies in advance... 🄶 The big news, of course, is the NEWPORT PRO CUSTOM that Mrs. Draelyc gifted me for my 50th birthday! I'm still getting used to playing it ~ it's an utterly different critter than either of my other Hamers. But I'm absolutely loving it so far.
  3. I’m just kidding — this guitar is getting PLAYED! 🤘
  4. I mean, yeah — I’m already torn between wanting to play her and wanting to keep her pristine. 😱
  5. Would you believe that, not counting my Martin acoustic, this is my first ebony board?
  6. Lol, I gotta admit to a bit of doofus-ness ... I don't get all the back & forth over crown inlays on the first fret. I'm late to the party, I think. But I also gotta say, these inlays look even better in person ~ very 3-D! ā¤ļø
  7. Despite the emotional rollercoaster that FedEx's inscrutable tracking algorithm put me through over the past few days, I have finally arrived at my first NEW HAMER DAY in many years, and it's a milestone/bucket-list kind of day, to boot! Thanks to a heads-up thread in the For Sale/PSA forum, I discovered this baby, and the discovery just happened to coincide with an amazing present from my amazing wife ~ she dumped a bunch of cash into my gear fund, in honor of my 50th birthday. I took it as a sign. Seller packed her up REALLY well ~ bubble wrap around the hardshell case & doub
  8. Well ... FedEx's tracking system lied to me. I didn't show up till today! 😁
  9. Anybody interested in a speaker swap? I've got a 16 ohm CL80, and a 16 ohm V30. I would love to have an 8 ohm version of each of them. I figure it's a long shot, but why not ask? Anybody got an 8 ohm Classic Lead or V30 you'd like to trade? Thanks! Christopher
  10. Welp, I took the plunge! Should be here on Saturday... Stay tuned!
  11. I second those two emotions. Although to be fair, Simon (I'm a HUGE fan, btw) tapped into Township music, moreso that creating a whole new genre from scratch, but I think a fair case can be made that in fusing Township with his established brand of folk & folk rock, he did hit on something new.
  12. Well, that is beeeyoooteeful. But ... I pulled the trigger on the Newport this afternoon. Many more posts to follow in a week or so....
