Stike Posted June 23, 2025 Posted June 23, 2025 I found my 1992 Sunburst in a pawnshop 31 years ago. They were asking $1200 and accepted my low-ball offer of $500 cash. This old thing sat disassembled and unplayed while I waffled on selling it or not for longer than I care to admit. I finally decided that I should own at least one guitar with factory paint and decided to keep it. Since it was staying I decided to do a few things. 1) Resanded and buffed so it's as close to new looking as it can be, there's a couple dents and the clear topcoat has taken on that nicotine stained look that some folks seem to like. I'm not a fan personally but fuck it. 2) Señor Gravelin posted this awhile back and I went with a Slammer V2/PAF set, as expected they sound great. 3) The Switchcraft barrel jack got 86'd and replaced with an Electrosocket, yeah I drilled it... 4) Tonepros bridge and tailpiece. And 5) took it to former Arlington Heights and New Hartford Hamer employee Clay Conner who's just a few miles down the road from me for a little fret level and dress. Still great after all these years. Oh yeah-zoom in, it goes to 11 now.

Disturber Posted June 24, 2025 Posted June 24, 2025 If it goes to 11 then it is the loudest Hamer ever made! ⚡⚡
tbonesullivan Posted June 24, 2025 Posted June 24, 2025 That thing is NICE. Nothing more needs to be said. The top is unreal. If only it was blue 😁
Jakeboy Posted June 27, 2025 Posted June 27, 2025 Dibs. And since things have likely doubled in price since 1994, I’ll offer $700 ($350x2). Gotta take inflation into account.
