stedge Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 cool but also not the same smooth grain we usually see on these. neck pieces are asymmetric. Interesting. Cant decide if Iike it more or less with the irregularities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how we know these things are made out of wood. This is a conversation I had with Mike Shishkov when he called me to get my thumbs up on the body for Ultimate #0009. It seems that when he did the final sanding, pre-paint, two mineral streaks appeared and he wanted to know if I still wanted to go Au Natural vs. a cherry (like a Les Paul back), a solid color, or a different body altogether. "Whatever you want," he told me. A testament to his standards of build and visual QC. Here are the pix he sent me: Of course, I gave that the green light. Uniformity and perfection bores me.

Jakeboy Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 That junior is definitely not the Hamer norm...but that is not a bad thing, necessarily. Just a matter of preference. Figuring and character is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
