ARM OF HAMER Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Well.................here is another I now own ..............got it here yesterday by UPS International Mail.I showed this to Steve [sERIAL] before I plunked down the $$$ and he approved so............that was good enough for me and now its mine. Lots of play wear,checking etc,etc.and it does have the original case which I had to do some repairs to but now its fine.It has a non original neck PUP ring mounted in the bridge position which is too shallow so of course the PUP sits high. Thats the only issue that I need to correct............. it certainly plays great and sounds wonderful just as is................ everything else works perfectly. Wish I could take credit for finding this great guitar but I didn't............. someone else found it for me. He emailed me about this guitar and I thought oh yeah right thinking it was a import model or perhaps a "Special" but then he sent me the photos and my jaw dropped................there it was! Its a "GOOD" one............... Have a look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRS6 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Congratulations on the end to an epic quest.A real beauty, it must sound and play really well, guitars with that sort of wear have usually been played a lot plus you wont have to be worried about taking to a gig.
