Took delivery on this awesome guitar earlier this week. I first saw a Hamer Sunburst in 1980, but was newly married with the first of three kids on the way. Now I have the cash to get the guitar I've wanted for over a quarter century. Played it straight thru to my Blues Junior and it sustains & sustains & sustains .... Thanks John. I'm always a little nervous buying things on the internet, but I couldn't be more pleased. - Chris
