HamStd Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Hello All: I have a 2001 Newport 12 string for sale. This guitar is super clean I would rate it a 9.5/10 condition, all stock and original, frets in excellent shape, original duncan Phat Cats, no repairs or modifications and comes with the original Hamer hsc all in excellent condition. This one has a GREAT wide/wavy flamed maple top (I will shot some better pictures to really capture the sunburst finish as it is much darker in person and really makes the flame "pop" from all angles). Gets that really nice Rickenbacker 12 string/"Byrds" tones as well as adding alittle distortion and this one gets some really nice cut through lead tones. Asking $1445 plus actual shipping costs or best offer. Email me at Hamstd@gmail.com if you have any questions or need additional information. Thanks Peter

cmatthes Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Kind of low on Les Pauls at the moment, but may be able to work something out...
HamerHokie Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Describe the tone, given the Phat Cats plus the maple top. Bright? Very bright? Twangy? Chimey? Brown? Blue? Plaid?
HamStd Posted January 4, 2009 Author Posted January 4, 2009 Describe the tone, given the Phat Cats plus the maple top. Bright? Very bright? Twangy? Chimey? Brown? Blue? Plaid? HH: The guitar is actually very bluesy with the Rickenbacker "Chimey" vibe if that makes sense. Part of it could be how I set up my amp but I have had alot of solid maple body guitars and never really thought they were that bright. I think the combo of the Phat Cats, and the hollow really give a nice balance. Clean this thing is killer, I like to add alittle overdrive to it and it is GREAT. For my tastes with the 12 string the Phat Cats are better than putting something like a '59 or JB in it, but that is just my flavor. What do I know, I like those old Hamers..... Peter
