I just picked this up in Dallas and was wondering if you could shed some light...strange logo

Taxi Yellow, tune a matic bridge, triple coil and single. Serial 39786. Based on serial, it is an 83 but owner says he bought direct from Hamer as is.

 
Pics needed urgently. No opinions expressed without photographic data!

Hamer has always made one-offs.

 
I'm throwing the bullshit flag at the original owners story.

Yep-it didn't leave the factory like that! Refin at a minimum. That logo is, um, interesting. Check carefully to see if there isn't a filled trem route. Not likely that it was a factory stop/tuna (possible, but unlikely).

 
The logo was just a sad attempt.... Anyone interested in it? I am picking it up on a CL deal for $450 tomorrow. I am standard heavy at the moment and don't have to time/funds to mess with it and try to convince someone what it really is if were to sell it at some point

 
If it was me, I'd just buy the case, provided the outside is as clean as the inside.

The most tragic thing: the pickup combination might be original - it's exactly like the Robin Crosby FB here a few weeks ago.

I now know what my ultimate Hamer would be - a Blitz (either headstock design) with a triple coil, no neck pickup or guard and a fixed sustain block finished in some garish colour or graphic! Yellow black zulu? Japanese flag?
