Evidently, the boys at Gotoh don't think intonation is for pussies. Ha!

That's wild!

I have been playing this Hamer today, and I happened to notice something that is a bit of a surprise. Seems odd for what we all know to be Hamer's level of quality control. The string ferrules on the back of the guitar are not in line at all. Not only not in line with each other, but also not perpendicular to a center line down the neck. The high E is probably almost a quarter inch closer to the heel of the neck than the low E. You can see this in the for-sale images at the top of this thread. I don't really care, but just a bit surprised.

So.... this guitar showed up Friday night, and I unboxed it yesterday. I asked Paul to delay shipment as I was in New York City for a week, visiting my daughter Shannon, who had her 36th birthday last Saturday. Anyway, it looks unplayed. There aren't even any pick swirls. True closet queen. I have another electric 12-string that I use on a few tunes, but I am looking forward to bringing the Eclipse as soon as gig season gets going again. Thanks again, Paul!

I read somewhere years ago that Frampton heard Rocky Mountain Way by Joe Walsh and became fascinated with that sound. Wasn't the original Talk Box manufactured by Heil? I remember seeing them back in the 70's.

That B&C one has had a headstock break. Pity…

Please describe the shape of the neck on the Corsa. Is it big and chunky, or wide flat, or?

The two Hamers have moved on, still rockin' the Yamaha and the Junior.

My first Standard in '80 and my last in '06.

Thanks Paul!

Okay, now I'm done.

I’m trying to.

Scheduled to land here tomorrow. Just in time for Christmas! It's even Santa's favorite color,

Here's another. This one is from 1980. The band was "Gardian" and this picture was on stage at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle. I have the white shirt.

A buddy of mine who gigs a lot just added this to his board and loves it. I'm guessing it's a similar pedal, just no flamed maple.
