  1. Yes, and the Talladega. That banner is the perfect tribute to guitar that sunk Hamer and the standoffish twat who designed it. Have you had any one-on-one dealings with him? He has a fance and a demeanor which screams, "You are beneath me and I am just placating you while I wait for the words that you are saying to end." That and, yes, "...watch me pretend to make this guitar"
  2. Asking prices or sale prices? Either way, there's no accounting for ignorant buyers paying more than what something is worth. This will always happen, but it doesn't mean that the imports suddenly have more value. Some sellers are just better at roping in the rubes than others.
  3. I've wasted a great deal of money in my time, but I stop short of flushing it down the toilet.
  4. Exactly. If you have an import and it plays great and you love it, that's about the only "value" that you're going to get out of it. What difference does it make what year it was made?
  5. Excellent point. This fascination with serial numbers for import Hamers is so strange to me. Why does this topic keep resurfacing? Have you ever heard anyone inquire as to the year build of their Squire Strat? No, you haven't because nobody cares. Entry level guitars are just that: entry level. They serve a purpose for those that want to learn to play, or have something to beat around/experiment on, but that's where it ends. There's nothing wrong with having one. It's not like I have my nose upturned. There's just no Marvel multiverse timeline where they suddenly become valuable or collectable.
  6. They can care all they want. That's not going to make the guitars any more valuable.
  7. Weirdo, but at least not insane. If you considered paying the price for one - even for a second - then you would be both weird and insane.
  8. Do you have a photo of a completely disinterested Dickey Betts pretending to play an entry-level drum kit?
  9. Also, the year of manufacture of an import is meaningless in regards to its value. You can't apply the same rules to the imports as we do with the USA models.
  10. My guess is there will be many inexpensive used/leftover examples for you to pick from in the coming months.
  11. The Custom and the Custom/Custom, I believe.
  12. Agree 100% except in the case of the Monaco and Monaco SuperPro. Somehow they are magical in those guitars.
  13. Hence my (half-joking) questioning if this was an April Fools guitar. It looks like a guitar created by someone or something not possessing the gift of sight.
  14. I don't know, but I've certainly been entertained by it over the years. Just the uproar alone when he started wearing suits and shades at his gigs. How dare he up his appearance!
