Bennyboy-UK Posted June 12, 2025 Posted June 12, 2025 Look at the state of this... https://reverb.com/uk/item/88905010-rare-hamer-usa-vintage-s-1992-american-case_268 Awful and unrecoverable
Steve Haynie Posted June 12, 2025 Posted June 12, 2025 Is there a cigarette burn on the headstock? Do the electronics work correctly?
stratacus Posted June 12, 2025 Posted June 12, 2025 I liked it better when it was recently listed for $1499.99. The middle position HB was a bridge too far though and I could not pull the trigger.

santellavision Posted June 12, 2025 Posted June 12, 2025 Not to mention, it looks like the two 'buckers are standard spaced and not F-spaced. The poles don't line up very well at all.

scottcald Posted June 19, 2025 Posted June 19, 2025 Did Nigel Tufnel do the routing? "This slot is like 1 larger so it'll get bigger sounds"

I don't understand why they didn't put in a F-Spaced SD?

I don't understand why they didn't put in a F-Spaced SD? It may have been right before Seymour Duncan F-Spaced JBs were available. I think they came out in either very late 1989 or early 1990.

golem Posted June 21, 2025 Posted June 21, 2025 I'd buy it if it was like $1200 shipped. But I'd be looking are placing some or all of the pickups. I'm not OCD, but I can't jive with how the spacing looks so off. Maybe it's just the picture?

velorush Posted August 18, 2025 Posted August 18, 2025 Quote This is the only one I have ever seen with a SHH configuration. Well, why might that be?
