I traded a Custom shop Charvel, an 86 SG and a Chaparral that may or may not have had a neck repair even up. I didn’t really gig with any of them so….. and, the Firebird will be going out Friday night to a gig !!

Atomic Music swears it wasn’t a refin job. It’s with my guitar tech now. Going to go over it….black light etc

They knocked off $500 and I traded a few things even up. That was a quick google search of the serial number….not accurate

Well…either way….it’s going home with me…..

I have it in hand. It plays like a dream. I can’t tell if it’s a refin or not. If it is, it’s a good one. Question though, the serial number is just printed on and a quick lookup says possibly 2014.

If it hasn’t sold in the next 15 minutes or so, I’ll be seeing it in person. I’ll let everyone know…

I’m going to take a look at it tomorrow.

I have three Standards right now….but this is very tempting.

Mandatory price would be $1650

Hey everyone! I have the white 1982 Hamer Special from the book…”Rebecca”…….I’m going to sell but I’m such an idiot I cannot resize my pictures. If anyone might be interested, I can send direct pics or gladly take instructions. Thanks!!

I meant to say…”come back to Hamer”?????

I have a Rick Nielsen signed Standard…I was going to ask $18,000,000……too much?

I saw the SS the last time I was there. Almost got it but there was a terrible bow in the neck. It was the Saturday after Black Friday and really busy, or I would have asked them to make sure the truss-rod was okay and working

Numbers 1 and 3 were mine. I’m heading up there Saturday to check out their inventory……again….

That one was mine along with the white Chaparrale at traded to Atomic. Bought off Reverb for $1100. Here are the pecs from the ad.

I traded quite a bit of gear to Atomic recently. And they were fair. I supposedly call it “downsizing”. They have a white 80s Chaparral I traded and they’re asking $500 more than I paid for it. However, they will deal with you.

I have a Monaco Gold Top Elite I could possibly part with….

So I put the SDs in the Standard and it’s what I feel like I’m used to. If anyone would like the ThroBak pickups DM me and we can work something out. Not looking for a ton of money.

I do have a black custom…..might give that a try. Thanks for that idea!

Hmmm….maybe I’ll give them another shot. They just sound different than my other two Standards, which I love.

SLE-101 MXV.

Not sure I actually care for these ThroBak pickups. Might put the Seymour’s back in……

So after further inspection of the “case candy”…..not mentioned in the ad…..the original knobs and white pickguard are present as well as the original gold SD pickups. Apparently what is in the guitar now are ThroBak pickups. Maximum Vintage. I have never heard of these, am googling now.

Received the Hamer. I’m going to weigh again. I don’t think it’s that heavy. Medium neck size. Plays great.
