HamerBlitzRebuilder Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I bought a gutted Blitz about 13 years ago with the intent to revive it. It's clearly taken me a lot of time to act on it but now I'm ready. I need help figuring out what specific brands and models the parts are so I can restore the hardware and electronics to be as close as the original configuration. It's a relic but I like it that way. I can post more detailed pics later if you want. I just wanted to get something up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulcozby Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I really enjoy bringing guitars back from the dead I don't do any of the work, but I have a friend that can for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ting Ho Dung Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Did Stryper play Hamers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Finding a Hamer branded bridge will be fun. The original knobs are going to be a little hard to find, but not impossible. That is a cool finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a new old stock Hamer-stamped Floyd that I got from the Hamer shop in New Hartford if you're interested. It's never been installed on a guitar. I think the ones they used back then were just the original Floyd Rose trems, if not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard his son had really good weed, btw, Ting. Even before he deleted that awesome Sunday night declaration. Anyhoo, as we sit in for what is about to be one of the coolest threads on this mausoleum ins quite awhile, let us ponder: WHO RAPED THAT BLITZ IN THE FIRST PLACE? (cynical me thinks she was asking for it for having a 3x3 instead of a hockey stick) What happened to that thread? That was a good song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Scepter Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Congrats, that's an excellent project you have there... I also have a donor that has all the rest of the OEM parts that I was saving for a rainy day but may become available soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And do you have the bolts and springs to go with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
