An AT7 is not a 7025. The 7025 is a lower gain AX7. IIRC, I could be wrong though. You can still get some decent NOS EL34s at good prices. Boogie still has the Seimens EL34 listed on their site for $70 a pair. Considering the Mullard Reissues are going for around $50 a pair, this is a no brainer. IMHO of course.

Dude...I told you before that Voodoo is for uneducated Haitians, and tourists. My wifes family practices Obeah. By coincidence Obeah was also the preferred practice of Alister Crowley. The islanders fear this stuff. It is not a joke to them. If I have to tell you again, I will be forced to report you to Denise who will promptly call her great Aunt in the islands. Woe onto you who doesn't take heed of my warning. LOL!!!

Dream on. That guitar was made for Prince. I would bet if any of us requested that guitar Hamer would... 1. Tell us NO. 2. Tell us YES and charge 10K. LOL!!! (Poe ducks to avoid the flying things thrown from the masses.)

I had one and it was a smoking guitar. Mine was a 1993 IIRC.

Iron Maiden and Priest Motorhead, Alice Cooper, Priest Accept, Dio Skid Row, Bon Jovi

A Hamer Special is short scale and not 25.5 like a Strat. The guitars are apples and oranges though. The build quality of the Hamer is better IMHO, but the design is way different. The Specials have more in common with a LP Special than a real LP. Think about it... LP 1. Single cut 2. Maple cap...not a laminate 3. Thicker body The Hamer doesn't share any of those characteristics.

Here are a few....sorry but they are all Hubers. Us rich school teachers have a rep to protect.

Not even close...that distinction goes to the Kendrick Continental.

Great guitars. I am not crazy about his pups, but all of the Suhrs I have played have been amazing guitars.

Frampton, Cheap Trick, Skynyrd...One More from the Road might just be the best live album of all time IMHO.

Sorry to hear that Frank. My deepest sympathies.

That purple Mel is a monster...an absolute killer guitar. I WANT THAT DAMN LIGHT BLUE MEL!!! AGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

I use the Boss tuner and it works just fine. It isn't as precise as a Peterson, but you can pick them up for about $60 on the used market. They are well built and work perfectly for live use. The wah for under $150 is a no brainer to me. In this range I haven't heard anything that sounds like my Teese Wizard wah. The thing kills, is built like a tank, and Teese has some of the best customer service I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

Best guitar I ever owned was a 63 or 64 SG. It was stolen from me at a gig while I was getting a piece of ass in the parking lot. It was a fantastic guitar.

God bless...

Actually, that *could* be a grain pattern. Right above it is a smaller but similar grain pattern right below the high E tuner. It doesn't look right to me either, but you never know. Guys like Greg, Andrew, and Pete know a helluva lot more than me, thats fo sho!

To mention Mick Mars with those guys is blasphemy.

I'll echo Stike and Chris... You are doing wonderful work, that is obvious. If I were you, I would seriously consider getting into building cabs that are covered, as well as the natural wood cabs you are building. The reason I would stay away from a natural wood cab is that I would be hesitant to take it to a gig for fear that it would get dinged. Tolex, or other covering material takes that reservation away. The crazier the beeter for a lot of us giggers...wood just doesn't have the same impact as a silver sparkle with bass boat flames when it is sitting behind you on a stage..LOL!! If you were interested in trying to build a 4X10 cab covered in a lac. tweed or something crazy, I would be happy to let you have a crack at it. Either way... Fantastic job bro! I love seeing stuff like this from guys who are doing it for the love of the game.

LOL! Yeah...I sold it to you ...dickhead. LOL!!! Who has it now?

Who owns that hardtail now? That was a great guitar, I should never have sold it.

Sweet!!! You guys rule. I am still trying to get out to Bruce's...so hopefully I will see you there.

Hmmmm...looks like the construction worker from the Village People was at the party...

I have owned both Andersons and Suhrs...my nod goes to Anderson, no question about it. However...IMHO the guy building the best bolt on strat/tele type guitars in right down in Nawlins... Gerard Melancon has them all beat..and his guitars are priced *way* cheaper than both Suhr and Anderson. http://www.melanconguitars.com/index.shtml

That is Gibson, and they are notorious for over inflating their list prices. Hamer is a different animal than Gibson.

That guitar has one of the bigger necks I have played on a Hamer.
