hamerhead Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Looking for a mahogany Standard. Prefer 'player' condition w/ Vintage neck carve.Whaddaya got?
Crwth145 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Did many mahogany standards come with the bigger necks? Seems like I've heard more than once that the necks are small-ish, and one of the reasons why people give 'em up.
Armitage Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I've got two and I'd say the necks are medium+, I've got much smaller necks on a few other Hamers, like my '92 Special.

Armitage Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Well I'd love to help you out.... but I won't.I do wish you luck finding one though, they rock.
kizanski Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Seems like I've heard more than once that the necks are small-ish, and one of the reasons why people give 'em up.Bingo.
atquinn Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Seems like I've heard more than once that the necks are small-ish, and one of the reasons why people give 'em up.Bingo.Front-to-back like, say, Hamer's modern neck profile? Sounds cool.-Austin
tomteriffic Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I've got a '97 one-piece MahStand, and newer Customs with Vintage and Modern carves, respectively. What I don't have is a set of calipers. I just pulled out the Modern and the Mahstand, an '82 Sunburst and a '93 Special. Just by feel, the MahStand has a thicker neck than the Sunburst (by a mile), thicker than the Special (by less than a mile) and it's a squidge smaller than the current Modern carve on my 07/08. Again, it's all by feel, but maybe that's some sort of guide. Doesn't do the grain justice at all....
