Something that doesn't attack the Tolex... test spray on a scrap piece of Tolex to see if it reacts with it first before applying to your new awesome case

cmatthes Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I believe that the Hamer cases just used gold spray paint.
diablo175 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Bravo, Pablo!!! Amazing work and every bit worthy of the precious cargo within!
scottcald Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Holy crap, I just saw this thread. Pablo, that's phenomenal. I'd have looked at that and either given up immediately or just hung it on the wall. Fabulous work, and the purple is great!
hamerhead Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 I need one just like that but with nothing in it, for hauling a pedalboard and a mic stand and some guitar stands and cords and gig stuff. When can you have that done?

pablo Posted March 5, 2020 Author Posted March 5, 2020 Hi everybody im on the way again😎 I have a little questions for the best forum in the web: Like you know , my cali ( im in love with it ) is 1996 so have no the stadium logo ( all of us know the reasons) So allways , all the cali's i see for sell have stadium logo , no one like mine 1:Do you know why i cant found a calis 1996 in US or the rest of the world? 2: exist any diference in quality ( wood, paint, craftmanship construction or whatever between the logo stadium logo calis vs the smaller one? Thank all for the answer
cmatthes Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 Californians were made until 1997. The last few years, they dropped the Stadium logo for the smaller version, like on yours. There are less of them because by then, shred guitars we’re seeing a decline in popularity. There is absolutely no difference in materials nor quality from the earlier ones. Same guys were making them in the same shop.
