SOLD!!! Now let’s move some amps!

Fender Alnico III and Alnico 62 Reissue from the 80’s. Both Bridge Pickups.

TTT, $325 for the whole lot, both necks, pickguards, pickups, tuners.

The bridge Hbom has is really your only bet. I probably found the last NOS Bridge 12 or 13 years ago out of the UK. Late 78 is when Hamer went to the SB Bridge, everything else prior to, are what they could buy off the shelf. Nice Sunburst BTW, hope you get it back together with the correct bridge.

Specs on the necks, other than the fretboard material the specs are the same. https://www.allparts.com/collections/unfinished-guitar-necks/products/tro-replacement-neck-for-telecaster

Yes, but just the Patch Cables, and not the AC. I wasn’t clear in my above comment. The Patch Cable ends have a slot milled in them specifically for the bend.

@RobB the AC and the Patch cables work the exact same way. The key is to always bend them at a 90 and put the cable in the slot. I have not had one fail yet and I’ve been using them for… 10 years now? At least 8 years, because I was using them when I was gigging. Zero Failures during live shows or rehearsals. I have to use the shrink wrap on the AC Lines. You have to just let them hang over the front because if you use a pedal with RAW Casing or some Wah pedals the plug will ground on the case. Can I solder a plug, yes but as much as I’m use to swapping pedals around this is much easier. NOTE: Once you screw a connector on, if you unscrew it, you are best to cut the cable again before reinstalling the plug.

Here is mine, I would like to at a reverb/Trem pedal. Wiring is a little sloppy, but now that the pedals have stopped rotating on and off the board it’s time to tighten it up.

What a great top!

At least three times.

Hum, how many times can I call you guys CHEAP BASTARDS!?! BUMP

I found a couple of Fender bridge pups, I’ll through in as well. I’ll keep looking for more items, but I believe that is about all I have.

25.5 Scale.

SOLD! Faster than any Hamer I’ve ever listed. 😝

I got bad news for a lot of you guys. Back when we did the first of the Chicago/ Paul Hamer events, I won the award for youngest member in attendance. Since then I passed over the hill and I can see 50 from where I’m standing. I didn't’ see CT for the first time until 96/97 because well, I was finally old enough to drive myself to the venue. LOL 😂

Sold to me as a Standard, but I’m not 100% sure. The Headstock Logo, the aged binding, the bridge all give it a more vintage appearance than a normal standard. I was at the Chicago Guitar Show this year and one of the vendors had one with the same appointments but a different color (for more money…) it was also labeled as a Standard. My guess is, 60’s Standard Premium Quilt. Prices are quite a bit higher than my listing. The couple that I found are 1 pc backs and quilt tops.

It’s definitely not a Classic, I was asked if it was a “Traditional”?

Well it sounded good, so I bought it. Then I tore it down, and just lost interest. Usually I throw a whole bunch of money at it then sell it! Lol Flame maple neck, hardtail, the SD pickups sounded good. Needs fret work, and wired up. I’ll throw in any new parts and old parts I took off. $260 https://www.flickr.com/gp/203174883@N08/7hcPard9AQ

Ok next up a bunch of Tele Parts. I love Telecasters, but I have what I need. So like the rest of my FS post I’m just cutting things loose, and letting go. 2 MIJ Allparts Tele Necks. 21 Fret C shape (Medium C) slightly bigger than the 80’s reissue necks, more close to the mid later 90’s on. Both necks are the same shape/carve. I purchased them through Doom Bloom, where they were aged and shipped to me for a hefty sum of $300 each. every pickguard that I have that will fit 21 fret Telecasters. Also all the hardware off of a 1986 Telecaster Reissue that I had stashed away. The tunning pegs are on the one neck. the whole lot for a sub HFC throw back price of SOLD!! https://www.flickr.com/gp/203174883@N08/7Z4942F6Y0

Cool, thanks for sharing.

Sorry no trades.

So I went down that rabbit hole again. I found a great playing LP locally, put on my descending gear, my great grandfather’s mining helmet, and all the rope I could find. This is great feeling and playing LP, I pulled all the junk pots, grounding plate out and Handwired it with an RS Vintage wiring harness, including the women cap on the neck pickup. I had my friend Josh Thompson over at Josh’s Guitar Shop, go over the whole guitar. Frets, nut, and he made it play great for sure. Then tasked my other Josh, Mr Gravelin to wind me a set of pickups for me. Nice clear PAFs to get things through a lower wattage amp without murdering the front end. Well I’ve sworn off two things, Stratocasters and now Les Pauls. It’s just not what my ear wants to hear. I’m definitely a Tele / SG guy. Conition: Plays and sounds great, the guitar is not a closet queen, someone played this one. The most notable finish is the upper bout. The former owner played with bracelets so the finish is hazy, and textured in that area. Other than that just little marks from being played. neck carve is a nice full c, just a perfect handful. weight: low to mid 8lbs. Pretty much the perfect weight. Comes with a brand new SKB Case. $1700 PayPal and shipping. Included. https://www.flickr.com/gp/203174883@N08/n179FBVAe0 video of upper bout. Hard to photograph.

Prototypes are my favorite Hamer, but they’re plenty of sellers that I would gladly tell them where to shove their prices.

Huh, I generally just use a Plexi.

Looks like an “Unburst” very nice.
