DaveL Posted May 28, 2025 Posted May 28, 2025 So last thursday... I posted the GC PSA about their sale... (10% off, plsu 10% GC bucks if you use the credit card, sale ends tonight BTW) friday afternoon, no one jumped on the FM Special and I said, f it, I'll grab that thing as I have a thing for Aztec Gold FM's pretty solid... some fretwear, but very playable. light dings but finish fully intact, no hameritis along the fretboard and I suspect it's a late '93 as the profile is closer to the slightly fuller 94/95's Top nicer than the terrible GC pics and I love that the finish has darkened to a vintage amber. I got a nice surprise when I opened it up... nicely packed with OHSC. so nice I almost wanted to keep the box and the fixins but I left it. good deal.
Pieman Posted May 30, 2025 Posted May 30, 2025 Very nice Aztek Gold!!! And and FM Perfect combo How ae you bonding with it? Enjoy.
hamerican gigolo Posted May 31, 2025 Posted May 31, 2025 I thought about that particular guitar, but I wanted a carved top. Congrats! 😀
Ua D Posted May 31, 2025 Posted May 31, 2025 Hell yeah I love those too. Yet never had one. The tops on those mid 90’s Hamers are unreal.
Travis Posted May 31, 2025 Posted May 31, 2025 Looks like my old ‘95 Aztec Gold Special FM. Those guitars are monsters. Congrats on the grab!

They used some great wood on FMs, and that's an awesome one! Excellent grab, Dave!
