BTMN Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Pimped the book on the Dean and Duncan Pickup board to positive responses. Some Hamer fans over there, not over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomerang~Junkie Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I received my books Saturday and had such high expectations ~ that I even left the box sealed and let it acclimate to the house's temperature for a few hours just in case ! Seriously, the book is incredible and exceeded my already high expectations. The sucky part will be having to part with them for a brief time, while I send them off to be signed. You both should be very proud of your work - this history/story of this great company desperately needed to be thoroughly documented for posterity and then well told. You knocked it out of the park at both (I haven't read all of it yet). This book is AWESOME ! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy p Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 DAMMIT!!! I was on vacation last week and when I got home I had the dreaded message from Schiffer. I had to wait until today to call them. The good news is they said it would go right out and I should have it in a couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serial Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Got in late tonight, but the first of two shipments of the books I ordered came in today. I've got to log them in, number, sign and ship them out to people who were kind enough to order them. I'll be doing another order in a week or two depending on demand. I think these are just about all spoken for (might have a couple still-orders keep rolling in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest will get done tomorrow. I sold out of all of the books I ordered, but will definitely order more if people want them!Thanks to every one for all of the support!

oloboy Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Just got mine today! Unfortunately we had dinner guests. They left and after a speedy toothbrushing, I'm reading away! Really well done. Authors and contributors should be very proud. I'm pretty new to the Hamer world. This website, my Studio Custom and now this book may lead to serious gas pains. Any 70s Standards for sale.....

serial Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hey-I got a call this afternoon from somebody letting me know the book is on Amazon's Top Ten Best Sellers' List today. In Performing Arts, Music & Collectibles, but we're in the Top Ten somewhere!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo175 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 F--- the top ten; it's a badass book. Mine arrived today and I've already been reading it on the shitter ( much more prestigious than some top ten list on Amazon) and discreetly paging thru it during dinner as the spouse blathered on about her day. Goddamn, that book rocks!Maybe it's me but after reading what little I have so far, I really feel like I'm a part of Hamer's history in having had the unfathomable good fortune to order one of the last 10 or so Customs to come outta New Hartford.

marcnorth Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 The wife ordered one for me from amazon when they first put it up. I went to amazon a couple of days ago and the site said it ships in 2 to 3 weeks. It came in today, It's pretty cool. I'm liking it for sure. When I get done reading it and drooling over the pics I'll send it to my brother. I've got another copy coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixesandsevens Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 We finished the day at #3 on Amazon's Best Seller list in category behind Kirk Hammett's book. Thanks youse guys! That makes me feel a little less bad for having already ordered from Amazon when I read your "buy it anywhere but Amazon" post. Congratulations. Mine's out for delivery now. I was hoping to have a nice Standard in-hand (or at least en route) before the used Hamer market a'splodes from the new book, but clearly it was not to be.
