conorb Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Here are mine. The cream/yellow one I purchased new in 94/95 - the first guitar I ever bought. The sunburst Daytona I bought from the local Hamer dealer after he played it as his personal guitar for 6 months or so. He added the pearloid pickguard and the hot rails pickup in the bridge position. He set it up that way for the blues/rock stuff he was playing. conorb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTMN Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Suprised I never posted in the thread. Sold this nice Black one to Harry65... Kept NT, Natural Thing, as it is the BEST "Strat" I will ever be able to get... Both with my other two "Fenderesque" Hamers That T51 has had a body transplant since then and that body is in Minnesota being loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captjc Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Here are my beloved Daytonas. The trans-blue Daytona is a '95. It is all original with the exception of a Duncan SSL-5 in the bridge. The sea foam Daytona is a '97. It is all original. The color isn't a true sea foam any more; it has a really cool patina. The true bright sea foam can be seen in the trem cavity. I bought my first Daytona new in 1996. It was a trans-purple with pearloid pg and maple neck. Unfortunately, I sold it long ago when times were tight. But these two beauties have taken its place.

sixesandsevens Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 No finer bump posted. Only to go ignored. Bump for the Daytona 500!!!! More Please! Well played Bubs... Champion of the uncommon man. I really dig Daytonas. Great guitars... lots of fun to mod too! So I gotta ask... Is that three modded Daytonas, or did that one start as a doubleneck? That's pretty awesome though. Does the switch in-between the two string paths switch which set of pickups is going to the outputs? Is it a three-way, top-both-bottom kind of thing, or just a two-way toggle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white 3-way slider switch is: Top Neck/OFF/Bottom Neck There is a master volume, master tone 3 way toggle controls the top (PhatCat) pickup selection 5 way blade covers the bottom (Strat) pickups Body was custom-made by Musikraft, and is a really nice hunk of white Korina that weighs under 3.5 lbs. Necks were both from Daytonas that had been parted out (not by me) Original Daytona Wilky VSV-G below, '90s NOS Wilky hardtail up top.

sixesandsevens Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 That's really, really cool. I dug up an old Daytona thread about the heel dimensions. Did you get the Musikraft body cut for tele necks, or was it custom made for those Daytona neck heels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzdat Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I have one in Salmon blush color and I do love it, all stock, sounds like a good vintage strat, plays better. Cool Beans Gene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubs_42 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 So I broke down a couple of weeks ago and bought a Daytona. I went down to the local shop where it was, Trans Red, 7'ish pounds, completely stock and as close to NOS as i've ever seen. Gentlemen came in and sold it to the store because his son is grown and didn't want the guitar. He purchased it new for his son and he never took it up. Little pick action above the guitar and maybe 2 tiny tiny dings. The pick guard and pickups are not even yellowed.Only thing I want to do is change the pups, but i'll do a complete guard swap so I can put it back no harm, no foul.
