JustKid Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Is the seller reputable, then? Anyone bought from this guy before?I shipped this particular one to him while back. Nice kid. Use to spent $10-20K a month buying guitars from me. If you need help, let me know.
LexxLecter Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 it's in RUSSIA You say Russia like it's a bad thing)))As for guitar and guitar business in Russia: I know the seller. He has guitar business since mid 2000`s. But back then it was profitable to buy on ebay and sell in Russia. Now the opposite situation. Its also shown on his web resource http://www.rmusic.ru/shop/hamer-guitars/hamer-standard-custom-2006I think that exact unit was modified with hardware and PUps and originally made for quite famous russian playerhttp://www.holstinin.ru/guitars/273/As for the seller...can`t say he`s a very nice guy. But no criminal either.

But no criminal either. The guy who plays in ARIA!? Wow man, I love ARIA! My cousins are half-Russian (their mother is Russian and she's my preferred aunt) and we had together a big trip on ARIA in the late 80's. I own all their albums until Kipelov left, and recently I even bought the last one. My two preferred albums of them are "Герой асфальта" et "Игра с огнём". And just to show you I even wear the band's colors, this is me with an ARIA Tee -and a cheapo Polish Defil Kosmos:
vitass Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Ария is cool band, russian "Iron Maiden" cool guitar too

I`ve started listening to heavy music with Aria)))) Btw the guy who plays in Aria has a really nice collection of Hamers: few Scepters, TLE, set-neck Cali`s and maching headstock yellow Cali is kickin ass! I`ve grabbed 2 Guilds X-79 from him 5-7 years ago)))
zorrow Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Wow, nice T-shirt! Is it hard to get that in US?Thanks, man. I don't know in the US, but in Canada those are very hard to find, yes. This one was given to me by a friend in Puerto Rico. It was the only one like this they had ever seen -the store is "Odin's Court" in San Juan. Would love to have one of the "Play with fire" album too, but that's just impossible to find.

jerseystar Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Guys why are you criticising this guitar? 'This isn't right that's not right' 'it needs this it needs that'. I have recently joined this forum and I really appreciate the common interest we all have for these guitars. However being picky about what is a stunning instrument isnt really on. If I were selling a hamer id think twice about putting it on here to have it pulled to bits by 'guitar snobs' who clearly have no interest whatsoever at all in buying it....This is my first post to this forum....
cynic Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 This is my first post to this forum.... If it weren't, you'd have realized the bulk of our criticism was done tongue in cheek, poking fun at the pickiness you accuse us of. Welcome anyway

This is my first post to this forum.... you're right, you're right. What an a-holes.... Sparkling finish would be nice though and may be reversed headstock. And the logo...it's small and wrong! Oh, btw, the one I shipped had rosewood fb, so got nothing to do with this one. But the seller is still good. And do not even think about selling your hamer here - no one will give you more than $350.
cmatthes Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Who criticized this guitar?The only thing we make fun of around here are Heritage guitars.
kizanski Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I don't know.I said it needed creme pickup rings, which it would get on the first string change, but it wasn't a criticism as much as a statement of personal preference.Jeeze... Pretty thin skin for a Jerseyite...

Welcome anyway Really? maybe your american humour is lost on us Brits? What I have worked out is the brand is seriously good no matter what colour the PU rings or fingerboard is made of ...the price of course is ALWAYS negotiable !

Pretty thin skin for a Jerseyite...cosmetics for a guitar of this quality...are the KNOBS the 'right' colour for you?
cmatthes Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 He said "KNOBS"!!!! (Phwoooaaar!) Yes...we're also one of the most mature groups of people you'll find around these interwebs!

Pretty thin skin for a Jerseyite... cosmetics for a guitar of this quality...are the KNOBS the 'right' colour for you? They're ok. I prefer black domes, but not a deal-breaker. Sorry our homour and colourful talk offends your delicate sensibilities. Ok, I lied. I really don't give a shit.

Steve Haynie Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 jerseystar, we have some running gags on this board along with some members peeves. NO ONE would turn down buying that guitar for the standard offer of $350.
LexxLecter Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Btw the guy who plays in Aria has a really nice collection of Hamers: few Scepters, TLE, set-neck Cali`s and maching headstock yellow Cali is kickin ass! I`ve grabbed 2 Guilds X-79 from him 5-7 years ago))) Any of those set neck Calis reverse head stock-ed? nope. Btw his TLE is on sale 1900$. No affilation of course))) http://www.holstinin.ru/guitars/144/
BTMN Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Paging BTMN.....Did you see what else he is selling? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dean-Z-Exotic-2003-made-in-USA-Michael-Angelo-guitar-/261751204792?pt=Guitar&hash=item3cf1966bb8 Late back to this thread. NAAH. I got a Shishkov coming and I am not a fan of that kind of top.
LexxLecter Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 ooooh....I`ll never get used to Dean`s V-heads Got some old pics. Looks like its original specs
