Phantom case...?

[morningstar]

OK so I found a FITTED case for the Chapparal bass.

I am still looking for a HAMER case for the Phantom A-7. Anybody got one or know someone who would like to sell one? BTW, I know about the Groove Pak generic cases at Sam Ash. I would prefer the correct case.

Also who know how to get hold of the correct Roland pickup for the A-7? I don't even know what I am looking for.

Thanks

Thomas,

Phantoms will also fit in the Cali/Centaura/Diablo cases.

The A7 uses the internal GK-1 style pickup and electronics - the The STK-1/G-707 electronics, to be exact.

See: http://www.joness.com/gr300/LPK.htm That site has a lot of good info.

If you are planning on using it with modern synth modules or a computer, the Roland GM-70 is a very nice rackmount MIDI interface that will work with modern synths. They're not expensive. The 25 pin cables tend to cost more than the GM-70......

Nuts. I sold one of those 80's Hamer fit-all cases a year ago or so.

They're out there, Morningstar.

I've got a case with nothing in it, but I thought it was a Standard case. Hmmm, it MIGHT be a Phantom-sized one.

Paults-are you sure that the Cali/Chap cases fit a Phantom? Those are Strat-sized cases I thought and Phantoms wont fit in Strat cases-you need more of a Jazzmaster/Jag case for Phantoms I thought (it's been a LONG while since I had a Cali, but a Phantom won't fit into my Chapp case).

At least one of mine is in some kind of Hamer case that doesn't have Phantom cutouts in it. That red 12-string that someone else has now is also in one of those cases. The cases have similar length and width as a Phantom case, but aren't as deep. I bought them a couple of ..um..er...decades ago, so I don't remember what they were for- if not Chapps, later shredders I suppose. Although, considering the store, they could even be Virtuoso cases

Wow. Thanks for the link. Now I at least know what to hunt for.

I have a Cali and a Centaura but neither are in real Hamer cases (fooey). The A7 does not come close to fitting in either case (a Peavey and a Alvarez hard case).

Steve if you have a non cut-out Hamer case you'd consider selling please email me.

I am at hamernut at yahoo dot com

Thanks

i have a spare non-form fitted Hamer (Super)Strat/Tele) case, but I'm 99% sure a Phantom A5 won't fit in it because the top horn is too long. I will check and confirm tomorrow.
