The_Cali_Kid

Fellow countrymen that I saw play a few times at small clubs for local bands as well as at local music festivals. Never really got the hype, but the kids seemed to love them. There were/are a gazillion local bands around here that blow them out of the water imho. /end old-man-yelling-at-clouds rant

Hmmm maybe not then. This is the one I was referring to that I reached out to the seller back in late April this year (ignore the price, it’s in AUD): https://reverb.com/item/96170071-1980-hamer-special-blue?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=96170071

I was interested when this popped up a few months ago from a different seller, but lost interest quickly after messaging the seller (for reasons that had nothing to do with the guitar). Great looking guitar — glws

Thanks Dave, I’ll try to delete this thread shortly to help with the clean up.

I swear I saw a for sale post here for Ultimate #0008 pop up a day or so ago, but I can’t find anything now. I’ve been traveling and am very sleep deprived so perhaps it was a hallucination… Did I dream it? 🤔

As soon as this got listed I reached out to the seller to check if they’d post internationally, and was working through details of how we’d do it before someone else bought it. If the buyer is on HFC and has remorse, please reach out as I’d love to own this one.

Aaaand it’s sold (he accepted an offer below his asking price) Great score for someone, hopefully here — I was interested but missed out.

Curious to hear your thoughts about Diablo guitars…

My guess is he was hoping for a quick sale (hence the low starting price and price drops), but he didn’t get one. Not sure why — it was a steal in my opinion, even at 9lbs. Dealing with lowballers and time wasters is a drag, I can understand why he decided to just keep it, especially given the low price he ended on.

Seller told me he decided to pull it from Reverb and keep it. Wise man.

Couldn’t agree more. I have 3 of them, a tropical turquoise, a sunburst thinline, and now the Dakota red. The TT is easily my most played guitar.

If I didn’t just pull the trigger on a Dakota red EJ Strat I would pounce on this. Great buy — hope someone from here snags it (so I can buy it from you down the track)

Excellent Dana! 🤘

I assumed the marks by the nut were from leaving the guitar hanging in a Hercules-type guitar hanger (without using a cotton inlay)…? Please post a pic when you have time.
