gorch Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Very hot! Did you ever play it? It looks almost untouched.
oldskoolrulz Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Very hot!Did you ever play it? It looks almost untouched.that's actually one of the original pics from the first few days of ownership, but have not played it that much since acquiring so it's still as clean as the day i got it...
rj2858 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 So since I learned how to post pix - this is overdue. 2003 Standard Custom in Indigo. Inlaid logo, abalone (good quality MOTS?) side markers, amber knobs, pearloid tuners, poker chip - beautiful and absolutely spotless. Picked it up 2 years ago from a fellow HFCer, and it's belonged to at least one other HFC brother. Seth Lover p'ups, light weight and sounds great! Sorry about the bad pics - I'll replace them when I get some better shots
oldskoolrulz Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 would love to see some hi-res shots of that one
Ted Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 I will say it again on this thread: Standards Rule!!!
dobieboy Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Here's my 2, my '95 Custom and '04 Korina:
cmatthes Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Here's my 2, my '95 Custom and '04 Korina:image.jpgimage.jpg Dobieboy - does your '95 Standard have any custom cavity covers? Just wondering if it was my old one.

I bought it from Dave's Guitar Shop as soon as those were released in '95. If you ever decide to move it along, let me know... Coming soon... Update??? In Stike's talented hands...
dobieboy Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Here's a pic from another post, the Custom now has a Duncan Pearly Gates in the bridge..
gorch Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 Burn on the flame! The winter sun hit the top today. I could not resist.
primaltone Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Agreed. Sunlight plus flamey Standards = awesome. Here's my Tobacco Sunburst Standard. One day I'll find an awesome Tobacco Sunburst Studio to match the TSB Standard and Monaco Elite.
rj2858 Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Hey primaltone, nice looking Standard! Rumor going around town sez that they sound much better with strings and a tailpiece, though. YMMV
primaltone Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Hey primaltone, nice looking Standard! Rumor going around town sez that they sound much better with strings and a tailpiece, though. YMMV No kidding. The first time I heard one of these cranked that had strings and a tailpiece, it scared the crap out of me. Before that, I never could reconcile the nonsense of swapping pickups, as it just didn't seem to make a difference on mine.
Armitage Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 I ordered a Tobacco Sunburst Standard like primaltone's... and waited almost two years... lots of phone calls to the store and to the Canadian distributor... I finally called Kim at Hamer and he said they had no outstanding orders to Canada... the order got lost somewhere and I was kept waiting.... not a happy memory.That's a beaut primaltone!
