kizanski Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Leave it to you clowns to obsess on a fucking sweatshirt when magic is happening in front of your eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomerang~Junkie Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Kiz, All joking aside, you are correct - its ALL magical in that shop and we all know it. We dissect every little detail of these photos to fully soak it in and then involuntarily smile - including the swag he's teasing us with there. I'm just thrilled shitless any/all of this ever came to fruition and IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. Logoed gear just makes it even more real after years of seeing the cool "H" swag all over the place. Sorry for that swag diversion - now back to your regularly scheduled Ultimate shop magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjamiam Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Speaking for myself, I have assurance from the Ultimate authority that the magic is coming my way (eventually), so I'm fairly relaxed about that. The swag, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSB0531 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 If anyone here has the Hamer DVD from around 2004, it shows Mike doing Abalone inlays around the edged of the guitar body.Each one is inlayed like pieces of a puzzle.It takes a lot of skill and patience to do that.It also shows him carving/sculpting the maple tops.Really amazing work.

Steve Haynie Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I need a zip up hoodie to replace the one I have. Either I get one with a band name or Shishkov. Tell me it is possible to get a hoodie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feynman Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 What, does everyone but me understand what's going on in this photo? As a side note, Mike, buddy, luthier to luthier - that fretboard binding is a little too tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubs_42 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 It is a little bit of a mind #$%^ since the fretboard blends a little with the mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a side note, Mike, buddy, luthier to luthier - that fretboard binding is a little too tall. It's quite simple really: Mike is filing down the rubber mat.
