Hamer Studio Archtop. Don’t wanna hear about it. 1993

How’s that? You suffer from déjà vu and amnesia? You’re sorry? Save it. You couldn’t resist, could you? It was the early 2000s—you with your unnecessarily large diamond earring and that emo haircut, looking like John Rzeznik from the Goo Goo Dolls. This is when you carelessly traded me for a red 1964 Res-O-Glass Airline, and in return, you ponied up the $400.00 boot. Why? Well, because a seven-nation army couldn’t hold you back.

Life indeed is the sum of our choices.

Where is the Airline now? Speak up. I thought so. And how’s that, Jack?

“And I’m talkin’ to myself at night because I can’t forget.
Back and forth through my mind, behind a cigarette.”

Yes, you’re talking to yourself, alright, and meanwhile I was sitting on the rack at Sam’s Discount Guitars & Record Emporium. Sometimes wanting is better than having—a lesson you still bear to this day.

OK, OK, stop sniffling. Here I am again, and so is your chance to make things whole with the universe. Besides, what did you ever see in that other guitar? Please.

As for me?

Do you recall the richness of my Honduras mahogany body, with sustain for days? How about these impressive Maricella Juarez wound Duncan 59, P.A.F. and JB that throw fire in the face of the unsuspecting? Remember this two-piece flamed top bound in ivory trim? Nice, right? How about my precision tuning, brought to you by Schaller?

Frets? Just as you left me.
Truss rod? Functions as intended.
Original case? No doubt.
Setup? As usual.
Condition? Stunning.

In closing, sometimes wanting is better than having—and sometimes not. Stop feeling like the damned looking at paradise. It’s right here.

Just remember: you can’t go back and make a brand-new start, but you can start from now and make a brand-new ending.

What’s the alternative? Oh, I know.

“Don’t wanna hear about it.
Every single one’s got a story to tell.
Everyone knows about it,
From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell.”

Save it for the football game already.

It only takes a couple of sentences to determine it's a listing from Grinning Elk.

It's funny and entertaining, but not sure I would buy as I always question the seller's mental stability 🤔

[hamerhead]

That top is mental. Oof.

[Jakeboy]

Damn. @DarkHammer is right. BUY IT BACK NOW!

He's doing something right.  I keep him as a favorite.  Some cool guitars pass through his hands.  Lots of my friends have "stability" problems.

Stunning!!! I believe it's a natural maple top? So cool. Still remember a late (2006?) hamer standard in a natural that looked just gorgeous.
