The Shark Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Tommy Williams of the Hooters. Tommy has been in the Hamer artist stable since 87 or so when he was Debbie Gibson's bandleader/musical director at a very young age.Also one hell of a nice guy and smoking player.That's cool. And I'd point out that any order of completion is okay with me. This is the greatest deal ever. And I'm not talkin' money!
velorush Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 With this many dates (so far), how could Mike not finish 0031?! Just imagine how many guitarists will see 0031 this summer! Awesome all around! ETA: cool tour art!
Citrus Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Was tooling around facebook, and on Mike's homepage there are photos for #31https://www.facebook.com/#!/misha.shishkov.1?fref=tsSweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!
velorush Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 I've combed the threads this morning and updated the OP with what details I could find. LMK if something is wrong or if you have additional details about a particular guitar that were omitted.
specialk Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Great job, Velo! It looks like Ickey approves your hard work.
kizanski Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 0008 **** *, Tobaccoburst quilt top, crowns, bound fretboardIt's actually Jazzburst.
BTMN Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 A few quick snaps... This one will be on tour this summer! MMMM Doubles!!!
velorush Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 Updated for da Stonge. Facebook users: anyone seen anything of 0015? It's apparently a non-HFCer. I'm not looking to pry, but a general description would be nice to complete the set. ETA: any other interesting FB shots not showing up here would be most welcome. PM me if you like.
bubs_42 Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 Brace yourselves... Somewhere at this very moment Hamerhead is holding his ankles.
velorush Posted August 4, 2015 Author Posted August 4, 2015 So where are we? The likely suspects (by serial order) are:0010 HrtAtak0015 0019 Hamer Dave0020 Bubs_420021 Polara0022 0023 VeloRush0024 HamericaI think mine was in paint last week, so he's not down to 0023. I'm guessing HrtAtak (wasn't that the lefty?), the mysterious 0015, Hamer Dave, maybe even Bubs. This should be great!

velorush Posted August 4, 2015 Author Posted August 4, 2015 I think are were in the same group. They NAILED MY COLOR that is all I need to say. I (think) I've posted it before, but the "naked" shots just before paint made it extraordinarily tempting to just to ask for a quick clear coat and assembly - the wood was that beautiful! The contrast between the bright, 3-D, heavily flamed maple and the warm mahogany was outrageous. Nevertheless, I am extremely curious to see Mike's interpretation of my subtly unconventional color choice.
velorush Posted August 4, 2015 Author Posted August 4, 2015 You went with the opaque black, didn't you?!??! Doh! How could you?! Well, I suppose now that you've spilled the beans, full disclosure is in order: it is my vision that employment of a 4" Wooster Pro Classic will set 0023 apart. Subtle, yes, but classic!

velorush Posted September 28, 2015 Author Posted September 28, 2015 An eventful couple of months since the last bump. Here's where we are on likely upcoming deliveries: 0024 Hamerica0026 Citrus0027 0028 BTMN0029 A.Bandini [RI, USA]0030
cmatthes Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 More than halfway there (to #0046)! Yes indeed! By my estimation, 27 of 47 have been completed/shipped. We're getting close to the 2/3 point.
elduave Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 So wait. Mine's Natural but the other "Naturals" are Vintage Natural? Nuh-uh!
kizanski Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 So wait. Mine's Natural but the other "Naturals" are Vintage Natural? Nuh-uh!Yours is Super Natural, Dave.
serial Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 So wait. Mine's Natural but the other "Naturals" are Vintage Natural? Nuh-uh!The official finish name of yours is 'Naturally Awesome'.
mrjamiam Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 So wait. Mine's Natural but the other "Naturals" are Vintage Natural? Nuh-uh!The official finish name of yours is 'Naturally Awesome'.The Ultimate page on Mike's website calls it "Antique Natural". Which none of us does.
