Can't believe the Newport still there. Hmm?

Serial, You make me wish we had one of those jumping up and down waving his arms in delight emoticons.

BUMP

Wow! That there's a couple of steps above very nice. Congratulations on two fine guitars.

As discussed recently on another post, I can get all the Hamer USA guitars I want. Custom made to my specifications in China. No thanks.

Waiting patiently for a WMG update.

I believe the time has come that we as guitar players/owners/hoarders need to stop using the word Fender when referring to the corporation of FMIC. Sadly there seems to be no place for music at FenderMusicalIntrumentsCorporation. My nickel.

Done. Good luck

Hey Mods, Location forces me to be a voyeur in this WyldBil #5 project. Is there any chance that you could pin this thread? It's fast becoming my favorite read.( a younger person might say it's "trending") It would make it easier to find in the mornings. Thanks D

I think this one sold on Ebay yesterday afternoon for Best Offer. It was up and gone pretty quickly. Anybody here get lucky? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=121316386305

History has shown that I have already bought all of the bolt neck guitars I'll need. That's how I moved on to Hamer. As a cork sniffer I prefer glue please.

Those are very nice awards. Almost makes me wish I had held out. But then I remember what I won in Doug's 'Buy as many as I can challenge' It was a very good year.

Unless you are in Asia, Europe, or the UK don't know why you can not be a part of this. So........ I thank you for the offer but shipping to Alaska has gotten really out of hand the past few years. I am afraid that it would be cost prohibitive. But if it gets up in the Northwest let me know, I may try to work something. Anyone else from Anchorage area that would be interested?

Wow! What an amazing offer! Wish I was a little closer, I'd be in a minute.

And I'm not a fan of guitars with levers on the front. Or standards, or pointy guitars. But the more I hang around here, I get this G.A.S.y feeling, even for guitars I am pretty sure I wouldn't play. Glad to hear it Nathan, she'd be a closet queen around here for sure. I'm pretty much Artist dependent lately.

This is the second time lately that that beat up piece of crap has come back to remind me of what a dumb sheet I am. But I was much younger then, and didn't know better. Nathan, I think it would be a much happier guitar if it got played once in a while.

Boy! They just keep raising the Standard for excellence. And I'm in my winter broke mode. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hamer-Standard-USA-SUPER-SWEET-MINT-Case-WOW-607-/131101275401?pt=Guitar&hash=item1e863eb509

Wow! That's a lot of guits for one year. I only got 2 last year. USA Hamer Artist Korina P90, ARTK USA Hamer Artist Korina HB, ARTKHB This site doesn't provide smiley faces with big enough smiles to reflect how much I'm enjoying them.

Maple boarded Cali. Another mistake the old fart made. Someday I'll learn.

Now that is disturbing.

Last spring, my affliction spread past the original diagnosis of Hamer Addiction and I found that I was infected with full blown Korina-itis. I didn’t know much other than that there was a physical difference between Korina & mahogany, but I knew that I would have to get one. Or spend all of my time wanting one. As luck would have it, I was able to find a very fine example of an Artist Korina P90, ARTK, in Jazzburst. I really enjoy it. It is a spectacular guitar. Like my other Hamers, there is no reason on earth that a fumble thumbs like myself deserves such a fine instrument. http://www.hamerfanclub.com/forums/topic/60590-ngd-01-ak/ But I still had the craving. I was haunted by the idea that I might have gone the wrong direction. As much as I love the P90s, I couldn’t help but wonder whether I wouldn’t be happier with the humbucker model. And would I be happier with a clear Vintage Korina finish rather than the Jazzburst? Friday I found out. Sorry for not posting sooner but it’s been a busy week-end. Also apologize for the poor pictures, not a good day for outdoor pics. [url [url I’ve only played it a short bit so far and I can’t say if I like one better than the other. All I know is that I THINK I REALLY LIKE KORINA! The ARTKHB seems to sound a little stronger unplugged than the ARTK, but not by any significant amount. They both are pretty damned amazing guitars. [url I repeat. There is no reason on earth that a fumble thumbs like myself deserves such fine instruments. But I'm going to enjoy them for a little while.

It's tough to say right now, as I've been playing the Artist Korina the most, the little bit that I've had time to play. But I still think this is #1

I don't think they will ship it for free IF YOU ORDER IT. He will have to order it and they will ship UPS free to him. I usually ship USPS priority. The others are way too expensive unless you have a large account with them. (Like MF & GC)

Actually I feel a bit sleazy when I do stuff like this, but 30+ years of living where shipping can be difficult, has led me to a life of devious behavior.

If you mean the black one, I'm working on it, but we're still working out the delivery. If you are still having problems with a case, try Musicians Friend. Find a MF brand hsc that will fit, have the seller order it. MF will ship for free so you don't get stuck with shipping both ways. Won't be a Hamer case, but safe shipping container and a box too. edit:GC ships free to AK too, but not as easy to deal with as MF.
