I've had several and I've found them to be all over the place. That said, they're usually not on the large side.

So it's like that, huh?

Putting it out there publicly: I want a "Fackyo" TRC for my SuperPro. Make one for my boy Kiz while you're at it. Make it happen, Mitch. Remember the Playboy tour. Here, here!

That's cool as fuck!

It's currypowder's now...

Lollars?

What year is that M3?

Possible, but not likely. I supposedly ordered the first chambered Standard (which also happened to be korina) in 2004.

Big +1 to this. Fukkin. A.

Under the TRC is the only place you'll find unpainted on a painted Hamer. Do they shield the output jack hole? Probably not, but are you going to take that funky jack out to look? Remember, this is a 2002. No Electrosocket Jack on that one.

Under the TRC is the only place you'll find unpainted on a painted Hamer.

Look under the TRC.

That's great, Gene.

Yeah, well, I can't speak for Ted, but I can be a stubborn sonofabitch when I want to be.

Agreed on all counts, but since when does a Detective care what motivates a Prosecutor? You hand a guy to them on a silver platter and they can't be bothered. So, where's the deterrent to stealing someone's stuff? Apparently, if you don't get caught in the act, you're off the hook. It's very disheartening.

Unfortunately, I have had a good deal of experience with this very situation. At my last job, one of my responsibilities was keeping track of our inventory of PCs in the facilities I managed. The desktops were easy enough to watch, but the laptops would sometimes get stolen at show site (it was a trade show company) or the occasional car break in. One particular laptop was stolen from the Baltimore Convention Center. The user to whom the laptop was assigned, upon discovering the theft, called me and asked me what to do. I said to call the Police and report it, so that we can get a theft report (that's what you would do if it was YOURS, wouldn't you?). I get the report and I wait. DELL allows techs in my position to order service and parts online, since the machines are on lease and we had paid for a higher level of service. As you would expect, with each occurrence there is, of course, a record. So, one day, I receive a report for some parts having been ordered for this very laptop. Now I have the name and address of the person currently in possession of the laptop. I call Baltimore PD. The tell me that I need to call the local PD for that person's address. I call THAT PD, a Detective listens to my story, and says he will get on the case. After 1,000 phone calls to him, he tells me that this guy got the laptop from ebay, so he's an innocent party. I tell him that I don't care who's innocent and who's guilty. I just want our property back. It didn't matter that the current "owner" had the contact info for the guy he bought it from (likely the thief), or that I had a bill of sale stating that we owned it. At one point he had asked how could I prove that we didn't sell it the laptop, playing Devil's Advocate. I told him that they are leased assets, and if we don't return them, we get to buy them. Selling the laptops would be pretty costly. Anyway, it seems that having the name and address of criminals isn't enough anymore, and the receipt of stolen property is no longer a crime. Sorry Ted. That probably wasn't the "experience with this" that you were hoping for, but that's the way it is.

LOL!

Fixed.

As beautiful as it is, I'm with you, Cary. Lots of people out there pricing their used Hamers with added stupid tax (Ebay is peppered with them), and just because "they aren't making any more of them." Some of us predicted that would happen, but they're going to be "for sale" for a very long time at those prices.

A new classic!

Congratulations on doing nothing for a whole year.

I don't know, but "Day of the Eagle" is.

LOL! No thanks! Got rid of all of the reptiles. Thank Christ.

Thanks. I think that's a better way to look at it. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the R&RHOF last July. There's just a part of me that hates to see all of these amazing instruments behind glass. Part of me is thrilled that I got to see it, but it's still kinda sad. Kinda like the dozens of guitars that I own which rarely see the light of day. I don;t know what you mean about "packages." Is that a dick joke?
