Rick Neilsen handing his Miller to Steve Miller at the RnR Hall of Fame Awards sure seems to have brought these out from under peoples' beds all of a sudden.

Who here owns the white one that popped up a few years back?

                            White ? I missed that one...........................................anyone have a photo of that guitar?

[cmatthes]

I know Peter had/has one.

I have one of the White ones. 

I thought that Ting might have bought the other one a while back.

Not to derail this thread but the price of this guitar versus the Red Miller Pair (guitar and bass) makes them a steal.

I hope the buyer who purchased the Miller Drafts from MC2 gets them if he is interested.  It would kinda be cool to see someone have a "six pack" of Hamer Miller's.  Hey...ya know that is not a bad idea. 

Good luck with the sale.

Oh I agree.  I searched high and low for a really clean one and got lucky.  These Miller High Life 6 string guitars are absolutely underrated.  They sound REALLY big. Like a cooking Les Paul.  I know this is controversial but I think mine sounds better than my '79 Sunburst.  And they look great.  Worth every dollar.

Novelty or not, Hamer USA did the Miller Guitars right!   Sustain Blocks, quality Honduras Mahogany and the tops some of them are just stupid sick tops under the logos.

Again, thanks to Doc Large for the website connection.

Personally I hope Steve Miller will post or play the Hamer Miller outside of the RNRHF gig. 

"I know this is controversial but I think mine sounds better than my '79 Sunburst."

You won't get any controversial vibe from me.  They are quality guitars and if the are good enough for Peter Green then I think they are good enough for the rest of us.

Yeah I was bummed I missed out on the pair that was on ebay. I fell asleep before the auction ended and they went for a very reasonable price. Cool guitars and part of Hamer history!
