elduave Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Something's gotta go. '07 Monaco III, used by me. Black Satin all over including the Spruce top (they don't normally do opaques over Spruce-this was a one-off for me), multi-ply binding on head and body, single-ply on the neck, bound f-holes, Pearloid buttons, dark rosewood board, harp tailpiece, 3-way toggle, neck volume/bridge volume/master tone with push-pull to activate middle pickup, Duncan P90's. I think that's everything. Slick tuxedo look, still my favorite looking Hamer that I've owned, but I gotta move something and this gets the call. (This pains me) $1800 + shipping, cash/MO in the US, bank transfer International (buyer pays all fees). 72-hour approval in North America, no International returns.
cmatthes Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I speak from first-hand experience. That entire guitar is BAD-ASSED COOL.Great price on that one, and I'll be sorry to see that one go myself.
freaktone Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Bump.If I had some money I'd ............ spend it!
dangravano Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Bump.Hi Dave,It sounds like your catching hell these days. Could you describe the sound etc.? Thanks Dan
elduave Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 Bump.Hi Dave,It sounds like your catching hell these days. Could you describe the sound etc.? Thanks DanThanks Dan. Yup, we're limping along with 2 store leases 'til June. It's tough. Meaty tone for a hollow body, you can get the 2 and 4 sounds easily with the push-pull, I dig the bridge pickup by itself and the the 2 position (3-way up, push/pull out). I'm not really good at tone reports, sorry, but if anyone picks it up and doesn't dig it, you can send it back to me.
specialk Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 It's a cool one Dave! If I didn't already have the perfect (for me) P-90 guitar, that one would be on my VERY short list. Good luck with it!sk
zorrow Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 If for one day I was a jazz player... This guitar is sooooo cool!
cmatthes Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 That guitar is a rocker, not a jazzer!Although I'm sure it could handle jazz or anything else if you threw that in the mix.

HamerHokie Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 That guitar is a rocker, not a jazzer!Although I'm sure it could handle jazz or anything else if you threw that in the mix.+1 - the stock SDs are pretty fierce.

I not a big fan of stock SD P-90. No disrespectThanks
elduave Posted September 11, 2008 Author Posted September 11, 2008 Guys, I'm not a tone report guy. I suck at it. I just play the things and think how cool they look. That said, if anyone grabs this, you can return it to me if you don't like it. Thanks.

I can't believe you still have this one available, Dave. I just can't talk myself into another P-90 right now.ON EDIT: However I might be able to talk myself into a Hamer single-cut with buckers. Got anything like that floating around, Dave?

pesocaster Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Rio does sell mini humbuckers for the P-90 rout....... and damn if I had the scratch I'd be calling for this one.....
specialk Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Rio does sell mini humbuckers for the P-90 rout....... /quote] Blasphemy! That guitar is meant for P-90s. Any other pup in there would stand out like a sore thumb. Wish I was learned in Photoshop. I could show you how terrible it would look with anything else. And man it just looks so damn good with what it's got now....
