kizanski Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I was never a fan of the stop tail on a Vee (strings go through the body on a Vee!!), but that's pretty cool. I'm sure there's a story involved, one way or another.
zorrow Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 This guitar just got me. A '67 V-looking vintage Hamer Vector with a Schenker finish, that's too much my thing. Please, HFC'ers, unless you really really really want it, step out of my way. PLEASE! --or we'll hurt each other.
kizanski Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Intersting serial number: inked on '84 serial with a stamped 4 digit number. Serial Steve to the White Courtesy Phone.
zorrow Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 The more I look at her, the more I desire her. I'll be lurking in the dark to putting my claws on her neck.
Dave Scepter Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Why does the neck sit so high above the body facilitating the need to use really thick pickup rings?
DBraz Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I think thst is one of the nicest Vectors I have seen in quite a while. Love the finish. Love it!

I live in Chandler Arizona and haven't purchased a guitar and a while and also have a deep fondness for Vees... but I will bow out if you say "Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band in the world"

Even though I really really really want it, I promise not to bid, but only if you promise not to try to flip it on Reverb next month.

Gibson 67's and later had the big shelf high neck tenon. Hamer was probably re creating as such for the client who special ordered it.
Jason01 Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Did anyone catch the message on the side of the case lid? What a dad!
scottcald Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 If you get it you have to post a vid playing a UFO song.

I'm currently working on "Doctor, Doctor" and "Only You Can Rock Me", plus on MSG's "Armed and Ready". Those actually are the only "true rock" songs I'm practicing these days, just to distract from my cannot-be-less-rocking-than-that gig.

BTW, I got an empty vintage Vector case in my garage (in great condition), as well as a set of zebra (cream&black) Schlabotniks that are begging for a deserving host. And I also have a set of black top-hat knobs by Gibson.
scottcald Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Beware, you may find the guitar Too Hot to Handle.

Serial Steve to the White Courtesy Phone. Gotta admit that is very interesting. I also agree with Kiz Vectors are supposed to be strung through. Maybe Serial, Peter or someone else can chime in with any knowledge of this guitar. Hamerica
serial Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 VERY cool. I'm not aware of a 67 style Hamer V. I'll have to look this up...
