"Hamer has always been cool enough not to build a checkerboard guitar without asking me first,"

Well, almost........

Maybe they did ask him and they mistook his perennial crooked smile, thumbs up and finger point at the camera as a yes.

I think Rick only has a lock on the 1/2" checkerboard pattern (?). All of the other ones (like the 3/4" checked SS-1 above) seemed to be more "fair game", but they tend to be larger than 1" checks most of the time.

Please sell me that guitar, I need it to match my Vans.

Your Vans have LEDs and Boomers? That's *awesome*!

:)

Err, no. Well said.

Back to my boring old, non-checked, non-boomed, and non-LEDd Hamers to go with my non-boomed non-LEDd Vans.

Is this what I think it is? Will we see tire pics any time soon?

Mystery solved for me. I believe I sold that guitar new from my shop in Columbus. The kid that bought it broke the headstock within a month and Randy Stockwell repaired it. It hung for years in Uncle Sam's Pawn Shop in Columbus, and then I lost track. Great guitar, as I recall!
