Oh how I miss MTV from back in those days.

Harder Faster was in constant rotation on my 8 Track player back in the day. I Like To Rock is a fun tune.

Yes.

I've seen several listed on Reverb. Never followed long enough to see what they actually sold for but they were typically listed for a little over 7k. I don't see any listed right now but there are some other limited edition Korina models listed at over 7k.

That was pretty cheap. I typically see them for over 7k.

I saw him at a legendary place called Casseopia's in Ponca City, Oklahoma when I was a Freshman in college in '82. He totally rocked the house. By the time the show was over nobody could stand or breathe because of all the alcohol that was consumed and the smoke that was in the air. It took me a couple of days to fully recover from that one. He was an original for sure. R.I.P. DAC.

Thought I would pass this along for any of you that use these strings. https://www.musiciansfriend.com/stupid?source=3TPEBBBB&utm_medium=email&utm_channel=email&utm_source=sfmc&utm_platform=mce&utm_campaign=Journey_3TPEBBBB_MF_Stupid_Deal_Of_The_Day_Standard&utm_term=SDOD_Prod_CTA&utm_id=152550&sfmc_id=47383031&optid=0034M00001wATQvQAO

Was that the one that was stolen from Jimmy's warehouse that they ended up selling back to him?

Gotcha. I thought maybe we had another Hamer bro in the area.

Do you live in the Austin area?

Added another Hamer to the collection. Smokin' deal at $899. It has definitely been played quite a bit as there are some worn frets along with a few scratches and dings but overall in great shape. Interesting that it has a Drop D tuner because I am finishing up a new song that needs a dropped D for the final riffs. Thankfully, the original tuner was in the case. Took it apart to clean it up and tweak it to my liking. Can't wait to play it at my show tomorrow.

I had one of those and sold it after I got my Revolver. I have always regretted selling it because it did sound good. They are worth a lot of money these days.

This is my typical gig rig. 2 guitars, my Silver Sonic and a pretty basic pedal board. Pretty easy to haul around for this old guy.

True. I paid $1,600 for this one new and the dealer dumped two more for $700 each about 6 months later cause they stopped making them. It sounds fantastic. The only thing I've had to do to it is replace the drive belt.

This is a bit of a pain to haul around to gigs but it sounds so dang good.
