warmlion Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 For Sale - 12 String Eclipse in the greenish bluish color. It is in excellent condition. Serial # 540750. I bought it used I think in 2000. I have not played it much since I bought it. I gigged with it ONE time and realized I just didn't want to deal with tuning it at a show. I also recorded it one time. I really like this guitar, but every time I play it I realize that it just isn't my thing. I'm not a collector, so I'm selling it to raise cash for a different 6 string. Or, if anyone would be interested in trading even up for either a gold top USA Studio P90 or a 25th anniversery Artist in good condition I would really be interested in that. Those are 2 Hamers I've always wanted to add to my arsenal. Otherwise I'm asking $800 for it + packing and shipping costs. Domestic shipping only.I believe I may have corresponded with 1 or 2 regular posters to this forum about this guitar. I have been trying to sell it locally in Chicago on Craigslist without much luck. I think my price is in the right ballpark for the condition it is in. I tried to attach a pic here, but I can't get it to accept my attachment. I'll be happy to email pics. Please note, the case I have for it is not a Hamer case. It is not as nice as a Hamer case, but it holds the guitar securely.Email me at warmlion@hotmail.com. Thanks. Leo
ET_KenW Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Due to the size restrictions of uploading files on this site, we have found it easier to link to the photo stored on another site, like photobucket.com. if you want to, you can e-mail me the pictures and I'll put it in my account and link the pictures.

ET_KenW Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Here are the pics. Very nice looking guitar if I do say so myself.
belgian Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Wow, and I want it !Lucky, you don't ship overseas.
warmlion Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 Well I just can't seem to drum up enough interest to find an actual buyer for this guitar. You know if anyone has doubts, I live in Chicago. Have someone you trust come by to check out the guitar. I'll be happy to show it! The only reason I want to sell this guitar is because I have limited space for guitars and I'd rather have a different Hamer that I'd actually play. Still lusting after a Studio P90 gold top...

Still lusting after a Studio P90 gold top...If I moved something, I'd be all over this one-I love the Eclipse 12s. Unfortunately, all I have for trade bait at the moment (that I can think of) is my SS2 w/LEDs and I'd need cash out of the deal or something else in trade on that. Doesn't sound like you're looking for anything shred-like though either.
ET_KenW Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 I can barely play six strings, twelve is way beyond me. LOL Be patient with the sale, things kind of move slow here. You may want to try either Craigslist or E-bay too. You might actually get more for it there.
Caddie Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 does a case for an Eclipse 12 string correctly fit into a case for an Eclipse 6 string? Headstock length issues perhaps?
jwhitcomb3 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 does a case for an Eclipse 12 string correctly fit into a case for an Eclipse 6 string? Headstock length issues perhaps?I think I can say definitively that you'll have a helluva time fitting the case for any Hamer into another Hamer case.-Jonathan

silentman Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 You could always smash up the case and then put it in the other one.

warmlion Posted March 24, 2008 Author Posted March 24, 2008 I think I'm going to put my Eclipse on Ebay and see if there are any takers. I have a question that maybe some has an opinion on... I've never shipped a guitar before. Looking for advice and any web links with good info on shipping a guitar. I want to make sure it gets to its next owner in the same condition it is in now. Thanks.

Thanks. eBay's not a bad way to go; you'll probably get more for it there than you would here! As far as packing goes, we have some good posts on it here, so if you do some searches you'll be able to get lots of info (with pics!). Just make sure you find a box before you list it so you don't keep your buyer waiting. -Austin
warmlion Posted April 19, 2008 Author Posted April 19, 2008 Hi - thought I'd bump my Eclispe to the top again to see if there is any new interest. Anyone...?
warmlion Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 Hello. I let this lie for awhile, but I'm actively trying to sell it again. Also dropping the price a bit to see if that will generate any additional interest $700 + shipping. Thanks.
Thundernotes Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Hmmmmm...........thinking............. .........could use a 12 for the solo act........
jwhitcomb3 Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Hmmmmm...........thinking............. .........could use a 12 for the solo act........ Go for it, Brian! Then bring it over and we can do Hamer electric 12 string duets! Beautiful guitar, great price. Wish I could make a run at it... -Jonathan
