We need lots of threads like these! This is the most excitement I've had here in awhile. Someone buy that Newport before I do something I shouldn't.

If this isn't gone by the end of the day I will give all of you stern looks.

Even if they won't, I forgive you. I could listen to "Just Got Paid" all day long I think.

Happy Birthday, ZR!

Good lord! That's a looker.

And now an Octave! Someone must be cleaning house. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/msg/1602876614.html

Keb Mo gets nasty with his too:

That's the one Hamer I want to try more than any other at this point. My wallet doesn't agree though. Someday. Bonus points for pics in your first post! Beautiful guitar.

HBD to two of the good guys!

I emailed a reminder and he got right back to me. It says he has tons of stock now and will be getting them out right away! I'm gonna have them in under a year from my order placement!

Now that's a birthday! Enjoy.

I'm sure they're just hung up in the mail somewhere. Damn unreliable postal system...

You've all seen this one, but this was my Jackson. I don't have many guitar sales regrets, but I wish I had held onto this one. Great quality, great Floyd, sleeksex neck, great sounds. It really was a winner. Damn.

That would kick absolute ass with a baby blue tuxedo jacket.

Yeah - I know. Hamer Fan Club and all, but allow me this... I'm sure it's just a product of my age and my questionable tastes in music, but I still get a thrill at the sight of sharkfin inlays and ebony. When it came to fire-breathing metal pulsing madness, little lit my fuse like a dangerous/crazy looking Jackson ripping through an oversized Marshall stack. Jacksons were exotic unobtainium, a tool for the elite groups having way more fun than I was. It doesn't seem that long ago when Soloists ruled the arenas. I'm guess I'm getting old. Anyone else still dig Jacksons? I love the Soloist, Kelly, Rhoads, King V, and more. Care to add a graphic of a demon about to devour a barely clad women chained to a cliff? Even better. Throw in some pentagrams while we're at it. I'll take a platinum pink one as well, and a snakeskin... Walk on stage with one of these - well, you better not suck. I miss you, Eighties.

I hope this is all good news somehow. I'm hoping it's something Jol and the gang want. More information would be nice. In any case, Jol and every artist at Hamer, if you are reading this, I wish the best for all of you.

Can't argue with any of it - all good replies I think. Brand Loyalty? Not a chance. Unless some company is paying me to use their stuff exclusively, why would I limit myself to one brand? Way too much cool gear out there. Every Hamer I've touched has been exquisite, consistently superb. I'd buy one untouched any day of the week. You certainly can't argue with the used resale either, as a buyer. I have zero Hamers right now. I came to the HFC for the guitars, but stayed for the people. The HFC is just such a fine collection of folks that I enjoy it too much to leave.

Is it really?

HBD. Miss ya.

GAAA!

Very interesting! This internet thing sure is cool.

I'm probably getting a little ahead of myself with my worries. I'll try to be more patient. My order was only on April 15th. I'll give it some more time. The holidays always slow the mail down.
