And I'll take this time to give Rob props for 2 seemless transactions..... He gets my endorcement as one of the great people on this board to do business with... Thanks again!
serial Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I've seen and played that one and it is indeed a fine one. VERY late for an SS1 and I'm not aware of any close to that one (last ones seemed to roll out in 89/early 90) and this is the only natural one I've seen. Cool all around-nice score for $351.
marcnorth Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 That is the one I picked up at GC here in Indianapolis, Some guy had just traded it in and it didn't even have strings on it when I got it. They didn't seem to know what they had at all. (imagine that at GC) LOL I paid them $300 for it. I was smiling when I left the store that day.
billhart22 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 If anybody has another one like or similar to it, please let me know. I am very interested in one.Great score!!Thanks,Bill
Jimbilly Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 You're going to have to post pics of all the guitars you've received this month! (I think a certain MirageII is due about tomorrow?). You'll for sure have two of the most stunning Mirages (a 1 and II no less) anywhere. btw; to get your photobucket pics to show, use the lowest of the 3 links to copy and paste.

I would like to see a picture of all your guitars lined up...that would be a real treat!First I want to thank you so very much with the SS tip. I am checking it out as we speak.Thanks,Bill
JJ Paul Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 Some months ago I picked up a cheap pepto SS1 just 'coz someon was kicking it out. Fine w/ me - took it home but didn't really play it seriously... until...I changed strings the other week and plugged it in my twin and laid some backing on my looper and then went for something modern-bluesy-fusion. Damnity!! These SS1s really play!! My only thing is that the pepto finish is sorta quite ruined so I'm going to have a local luthier redo it in aged olympic white, with as little coats of finish as possible, just to bring out all the resonance from the body and neck. And yes... the neck profile is just so sweet and the fretboard is so slick.. you could play it for hours. Not to mention the fact that the stock OBL puppies don't sound bad at all. All in all it's a must-have axe! It's a shame they just don't make them like this anymore JJ
BTMN Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 Hey JJ, under the pepto I bet it looks like Rob here's new sweetie. That is what I found after I took the Black of a Blitz bass I have. White is cool, (Winter, Snow,...) but Hamer uses great slabs of Mahogany. Great buy Rob.

Thanks, Bill Hey Bill. Thank you! I picked it up on HC for $450 and from what BCR Greg tells me, it floated around on these pages for a little while. Because of that (being passed around) he calls it the "cheerleader"! Hey, She may have been around, and she may have been bad, but she's good! Ok, so she's a slut! Isn't there a song like that?!! Also Greg tells me he believes the back of the headstock may have been refinished because it has no serial # on it. No break, just refinned. The rest of the guitar has a lot of checking in the paint and friends even tell me the guitar looks "old" so I'm guessing the rest of it is original. If you like V's, I've got a white Scepter V that was custom made by Hamer for me back in '86. I'm going to post a pic as soon as my niece gives me back the dig. camera she stole.......er, borrowed from me! Walter.
Rockola Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 Nice SS. I liked that guit but Peso nixed my straight-up trade for a Wulitzer 'Babe Magnet' guitar.
billhart22 Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 wgarces -Please send me pics.........what a lucky guy you are..Greg knows what he is doing, but I am really interested in the V.email: [email protected]Great meeting you!Bill
pesocaster Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 Nice SS. I liked that guit but Peso nixed my straight-up trade for a Wulitzer 'Babe Magnet' guitar. Ah the glory of the Wurlitzer... hahahahha I'd love to find another one......
