Guest Meshuggah Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Now hold on there Dartangen. Underwound Fralin Unbuckers I dare say. Top notch. Quite!
Travis Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Are you looking for an Artist Mahogany 25th or one of the fancy 25ths with all the bling?By the way, I highly recommend getting a set of the Duncan Ultimates. I dropped a set of those into my Artist Korina and I couldn't be happier.
hamersandstrats Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Can you buy a set of duncan ultimates? I thought they were specially made.
Travis Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 You used to be able to get them direct from Hamer. Only they were designated "SLU" for Slightly Less Ultimate. Or, you could have MJ at the Duncan Custom shop wind you a pair. Custom winds at Duncan run about $160 per humbucker. Personally, I think they're worth every penny.

I dropped a set of those into my Artist Korina and I couldn't be happier.Travis,just lookin at the Mahogany. I like the bling on the fancy ones for sure, but I'm lookin for a player, not a collection piece.Thanks for the heads up on the Ultimates.Tim
Travis Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Since you're looking for the plain mahogany, may I ask why it needs to be a 25th instead of a plain old Artist Mahogany? No disrespect meant, just curious. You might improve your chances if you widened your search.
cordroad Posted October 14, 2006 Author Posted October 14, 2006 I just thought the 25th was kinda cool. I'm actually watching a 95 Artist GATASO here that appears to be very nice.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A%3AIT&rd=1What's your fav Artist, Travis?
Travis Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 I don't know if I have a favorite Artist. But my Artist Korina is the only one I currently own. Someday I would like to have an Artist Custom and an Artist Mahogany as well. I'm not a big fan P90's so I wouldn't go that direction. But I've loved every Artist Custom I've played. And my AK feels and sounds like butter.The standard maple top Artists are great guitars. They play and sound every bit as good as the Customs without the extra bling. I hope you get that one you're watching. It looks like a winner.
Guest Meshuggah Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Whoa. Tim. I have the same guitar except it is not hollow. I just put a Pigtail intonatable bridge on it. Buy this dude. Only question is the neck profile. Upir dog wants you to put underwound Fralins in this. Jim
Lockbody Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Only question is the neck profile.Jim '95? Probably a thin medium. They didn't start getting chunky to... what... 1998?
Eric Weston Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Only question is the neck profile.Jim '95? Probably a thin medium. They didn't start getting chunky to... what... 1998?Ya never know, my '95 wraptail Studio has a pretty chunky neck on it..... and both my '94 Hamers are very "medium", not thin at all. I HAVE played a couple of Artists from that time (3 or 4) and they had very different neck profiles....no real baseball bats though....I've only played a few guitars with bigger necks than my Studio....BruceM's Duotone Custom, BadgerDave's old Koa topped homebuilt tele with the fatback Warmoth neck, and a '58 Junior spring to mind.

Only question is the neck profile. Upir dog wants you to put underwound Fralins in this. Jim Can't seem to get a good description of the neck from the seller, point being it is a rather subjective judgement. Tell me, what's a reasonable number to buy this for? And, btw, thanks Jim for the kind words. You, sir, are a peach.
Travis Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Now that's just mean. Posting pics of something you have that someone else is looking for is uncalled for. Plus, I couldn't do it this time. Although, I got my kicks when people posted threads looking for an Artist Korina or a Mirage I.
cordroad Posted October 15, 2006 Author Posted October 15, 2006 Uh huh, uh huh......go ahead, rub it in. I may have somethin to show ya'll in a day or two.
cordroad Posted October 17, 2006 Author Posted October 17, 2006 Not a 25th anniversary, but I do have an Artist Korina HB.MarcMarc,PM or email me.Tim
cordroad Posted October 17, 2006 Author Posted October 17, 2006 OK, time to take Travis' advice and widen the search to include all artists.???
