Dickey Betts Dies at 80 RIP, Dickey. He was an amazing player and talent.

Seller dropped price to $1650 plus shipping…

The 30th Anniversary Studios are definitely "top-shelf" Hamers. Features include the following: Chambered Mahogany body - I have read on this forum it is similar to an Artist without the F hole 4A Ultimate Maple Book matched top Brazilian Rosewood fretboard with Mother of Pearl Victory Inlays Seymour Duncan Antiquity pickups Kluson tuning machine-heads Multi striped Ivoroid binding I have #004:

SB-77 quilt top. Old low res photo. Not a GuitarCenter hostage pic.

I agree 100%. Great amp!

Thanks for the heads up. This was a screaming good deal on a great amp.

This does not appear to be an OHSC case for a Hamer USA Daytona. The rounded corners make it look more likely to be an import case.

The first week was easy.

I recall seeing a similar Newport with a wraptail bridge and HBs on Gumtree in Australia a few years ago.

This is an absolute steal at $925 CAD.

Yep, Tort binding on body and neck and thicker body per the ad listing. It’s a unicorn.

Congrats!!

Based on the measurements below from the listing, the bottom bout measurement appears to be too small for a Newport / Monaco case: 14 inch bottom bout, 10 1/2 middle waist, 10 3/4 top bout. Length is 40 1/2. 3 inch depth.

I sent the seller a message…

Yes, it is a fraudulent listing. I own Korina Standard #31. See my reply in the follow thread. I am contacting Reverb.

Beware!! The listing for 1995 Korina Standard #31 is a fraudulent listing. I own this Korina Standard and purchased it off of eBay last April. https://www.ebay.com/itm/325589207266?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=-ArfusANTOm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=UlB6fEe7RwW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Note there were two additional fraudulent listings on Reverb yesterday for the black Willcut Newport 90 with a seller in Japan with zero previous listings or sales. https://reverb.com/item/70245638-2008-hamer-usa-newport-90-willcutt-custom-order-maple-carved-top-ebony-board?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=70245638

Nah. Next... Hmmm... try this: Kiss My Ass -- Look What I Got! How's that? I think they call that FaceBook.

Congrats! Nice score!!
