This is a vintage 1980s Hamer case to fit Hamer Standards. Its in overall very good condition. There's a repaired accessory pocket where a new piece of wood has been glued in and the lining reglued. There are a few rips in the tolex and chips around the case. If you need a period-correct case to go with your vintage Hamer, here it is!

Eek... hardware is pretty rusted and brittle looking 😳

Looks like, "Someone left my cake out in the rain."

Given the amount of rust, the insides have to smell pretty nasty. I sure wouldn't put my 'vintage 1980s Hamer' in it.

That's about $490 too much, given the condition.

                          That is a hell of a lot of $$$$ for something in such poor condition, yeah it is a RARE case.....................it's certainly rare in that condition.😲

Given the outrageous price of this case, it brings to mind the Joan Baez song, "Diamonds and Rust"

If it LOOKS that bad, just imagine the SMELL.

 

Make sure your shots are up to date!

A little bit of aluminum powder mixed with that case and you are a blasting cap away from a giant thermite bomb. 

Damn it, I'm probably on a watch list now.

"...in very good shape..."???? According to who? And by what metric?
