kizanski Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 New Historics vs. any Korina Hamer? No, I don't think so. We have an Historic V in the shop new and it's every bit as good as a Hamer... sorry!Quote:Somewhere along that LPF thread, the original run of Historic Vs and Explorers was mentioned. These are the Vs, Explorers and Modernes that came out in the early '80s.Unquote:BTW- These were NOT Historics..."If I had my choice of a Historic V or Explorer or a Hamer version at the same price, personally I'd take the Historic ... Just my 2 cents."Where are you gonna get a Historiv V or Explorer for the price of a Korina Hamer? Let me know, 'cause I might buy a few (at those prices, I could make a killing on ebaY).I think think one of the glaring points is that you can't get a Historic V or Explorer or a Hamer version at the same price as a Korina Hamer.Yes, they early '80s Reissue Vs and Explorers are not technically, "Historics," but they are (and were in the LPF thread) referred to as such. Personally, I couldn't give a rats ass what you call them. They're overpriced and sub-standard - especially for they price.Buy em, Frank. You can have 'em.
