If not an original Sustain Block bridge, what?

From page 50 of 'The Book' - "Of course, 'regular production' for Hamer at this point meant only a total of ninety-six guitars from the June NAMM show through the end of 1977" Plastic shim here under 7 0094's bridge. -
Tasty, I really like the tops on the '79's.

Love that second pic Gene !

9 0621 Piezo saddles are now gone, replaced by sustain block saddles thanks to serial. Extra pot and switch are now redundant.

Very nice !! Interestingly, I have a 79 with a pencil neck.

Simple, functional, looks good. What more could you ask for !! Love it !!

In 1981, Creem brought out a History of Hard Rock and Heavy Metal mag. It covered everything from Blue Cheer to MC5 to BOC to Bloodrock to Angel to Budgie to anything remotely heavy. It was my bible, and I began the journey to seek out these records, that I knew nothing about, and no-one, at the time, talked about.
