veatch Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Custom order with a Humbucker & P-90 Combo This guitar should be a stock Hamer model + a with Sustain Block!!!!! We should throw in a Triple Coil in the bridge. That would be a cool HFC RUN! I would like mine in Silver Sparkle Please. *That* would be cool. A limited HFC run, but in custom colors to make them even more limited. Sustain block + triple @ bridge + P90 @ neck + crowns = count me in I'm leaning towards red, though i don't know why...

Count me in - EXACTLY the specs I was thinking! Needs a big neck for us old guys. I want a gold top... no, make that BCR Burst... no, that trans-sparkly orange - top only... What would it cost? Edited to add - and a THREE position switch for the triple coil (not just a two-pos like my A5 had). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smith Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 '82 Sunburst in black with original TOM, has had a Bigsby. May be for sale soon. The neck is too thin for me, like a Special. I've had it since 2001 and played it a lot when I first got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veatch Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Would we want maple tops or All Mahogany and Ebony Boards? Yes. Seriously, Ebony fer me. As far as to maple top or not, i'll leave that to the tone junkies to decide. Frankly, i have enough maple topped guitars, it would be nice to have an all-hawg to have something a little different.

If I could come up with the funds I'd buy one of those. Gold top with cream pickups would be the ticket for me I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought on the switching is either the 5 way rotary or a 3 way switch for the Bridge and a push/ pull to bypass to the P90. The 5way is the cheaper route and you can always change it later.

bruce919 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I would go with a Goldtop myself or just go with a Custom color. Sea Foam top & leave back & neck Natural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorch Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Not of collector value, but truly unique in several ways. Paying tribute to the alder body of this MIK Standard, this one has true hand wound 1966 replica strat type pickups under P90 hats. Electronics was changed to military grade 250k pots plus an original 1960s capacitor. It nails excellent strat sound. The missing strat typical middle pickup is outweighed by the 5-way rotary switch offerings: standard parallel bridge, neck-bridge, neck switching plus two series wirings, both in-line and bridge reverse. Schaller LP tremolo and Sperzel lockings complete the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velorush Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 6 possibly on board....This could be good. Should we start a new thread? Damn a Gold Top....Thats Brilliant! My thought on the switching is either the 5 way rotary or a 3 way switch for the Bridge and a push/ pull to bypass to the P90. The 5way is the cheaper route and you can always change it later. Personally, no love for the rotary switch. I like the control layout of the Electraglide (with the aforementioned difference: three-way on the triple coil). Would we want maple tops or All Mahogany and Ebony Boards? Yes. Seriously, Ebony fer me. As far as to maple top or not, i'll leave that to the tone junkies to decide. Frankly, i have enough maple topped guitars, it would be nice to have an all-hawg to have something a little different. No PRS top for me, thanks - if it's maple I'd want a rather plain looking maple, but all hog sounds great. I could live with ebony, but I'd probably prefer rosewood just because... Now that I've thought about it, I seem to be trying to incorporate everything I loved about both of the two Hamers I've owned and leave out the reasons I sold them. Pickups?

veatch Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Pickups? Pickups would be nice. I'll go with the consensus on this one, as i'll end up replacing them about 8 times anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce919 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I would guess with past custom order I have done. The list for this would be about 4600-4800 area. Taking a stock Studio GT & moding it. You might get a bit of a price break if you got 6 or more ordered up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to agree. Stock Duncans and replace as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordOfTheThighs Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Custom ordered Standard. A dynamite looking guitar, but I just never bonded with it completely. Maybe I'm getting jaded, cause if was 25 years younger, I'd been creaming my jeans every time I picked it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
