Your Top 3 Dream Hamers....


Recommended Posts

So if you could get any 3.... which would they be? Any model from any time..... Let's hear them.

Mine - in no particular order.

1. Hamer Firebird - not the production FB's they did - there is a pic of a custom order in the workshop blog - I'd just want a pick guard with the mini - humbuckers and a few other little changes

2. Hamer Watson - sigh*

3. Hamer Californian Elite. from the "GET SERIOUS" advertisement.That was the add that made me WANT a Hamer really bad...1989.

( only if it had a Bigsby on it though :blink: )

That's easy to answer. I don't have that many and they are all perfect.

Was just going to post, "If you could have any Hamer no holds barred, what would it be?"

Guess with no more being made, similar thoughts

Artist with a Koa top, Bigsby, and Talladega neck profile

Sunburst with Dan Armstrong headstock

Eclipse with just a a TV Jones Filtertron in the bridge, metal flake finish, and of course a Bigsby. Hmmmmmmm...... I could probably still get this done for less than a custom order by buying a used eclipse and sending it to BCR Greg and Stike. Gonna do it!

Sell a guitar or 2 and get this done. In search of a beater Eclipse!!!

I can't summon all the possible options, concerning woods, finishes and hardware configurations, so in general terms it'd be...

a Virtuoso with a Floyd',

a Monaco Super Pro and

a Talladega with a sustain block.

Course, I'm always seeing objects of desire here that I'd've never imagined...

My Specials, my korina Standard, and my Sunburst that has been my favorite lately. They have all grown on me, so those are the guitars in my head lately. That is a good thing because dream guitars can become real expensive when they become available.

I think I've managed to score most of my dream Hamers.

I know there's at least one other of these out there:

Vintage S in salmon blush:

The ebony board on this one adds a little extra edge that sounds so nice. And the finish is really cool.
