veatch 3,573 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Since we can't seem to agree on what "iconic" means, let's keep this one simple (i know we've done this before, but it's always a pron-fest... ) What are the 10 most righteous Hamer guitars you've seen owned by an HFC member. Please have pics to apply... I don't have 10, but mine are: Cam's Junior (still can't believe i didn't buy this when i had the chance...) The Electroglide (C. Mathes?): Moozak's Nightfire Talladega: Devnor's Boomer'd Artist: Travis's INSANELY figured Korina Artist (another one i should have bought i had the chance... :/ ) Silentman's Watson: And of course, Da Punisher: What you got?

django49 9,911 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I will cop to the "Duotone Custom Brazilian" in the "Custom Gallery". Will try to get another decent picture. http://www.hamerguit...a=customgalleryOne I would never get tired of looking at----That quilted Artist Ultimate.....The owner will pop back into my head as soon as I post this, no doubt.....Oh yeah, ArnieZ!

Lockbody 921 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 BadgerDave's old Artist Custom. I hate I didn't have the scratch to buy this one when it came up for sale. Foodermon's Alligator Burst, Boomer'd Standard. One of the nicest I've ever seen, bar none. and then there's... Link to post Share on other sites

Kurt L 591 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Morris, did your Talladega come with humbuckers or did you pull the Double Ds? Haven't seen one like that... beautiful guitar. Link to post Share on other sites
Morris Davis 19 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Morris, did your Talladega come with humbuckers or did you pull the Double Ds? Haven't seen one like that... beautiful guitar.I pulled the double ds and the 4 way switch - now has a three way switch and WCR godwoods (perfect fit). Double ds were nice ...but full of single coil hum. This guitar smokes with godwoods - light as a feather, huge tone and a nice snap from the longer scale length. Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt L 591 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Cool. I'm still getting used to my Talladega... very different from my other Hamers. Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Haynie 12,205 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 The Punisher is the first one that comes to mind. DavidB broke the FB barrier with his custom order. Link to post Share on other sites

sledhead44 94 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Does an HFC'er own my personal favorite "Red Molly"?Edited to add that I have to agree that the Punisher is most righteous as well. I have seen it talked about on many other forums. Link to post Share on other sites

Disturber 4,434 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Yes, (thank you, I'm blushing now). I got it. A damn fine guitar in every way possible. And then again, I've been thinking it might just need a Kahler to be 100% right, Link to post Share on other sites

kizanski 15,324 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 One of my all time faves. Someone tell me why I didn't buy it when I had the chance?? The Punisher is another one. Still kicking my own ass about that one. Link to post Share on other sites
kevinbower1959 712 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 The most epic of all will be the 'Most-Metal-Standard-In-The-History-Of-Hamer' which I'm going to custom order as soon as Frank U gets back to me with a price...... Link to post Share on other sites
