The Shark Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Under seven pounds. The more "yellow" pics are what it looks like now. The nitro aged quite quickly. The guitar sounds fantastic and plays great. Brazilian rosewood board. Ian's underwound PAF pickups. The man is a genius builder and a terrible businessman. A serious instrument. MADE THE MISTAKE OF PLAYING IT AT PRACTICE. NO LONGER FOR SALE... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burningyen Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Since it seems you all don't live on TGP, Ian Anderson is also the name of a luthier, not the same Ian Anderson from Tull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I know this however, I think it would be cool to see a Flying V shaped flute😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donner Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 ...my shortcut in my brain was the other way round: I was wondering, when and why (luthier) Ian A. would have cooperated with Hamer to get his name on the headstock. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM OF HAMER Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yes genius guitar builder but a business man he is not. I knew a guy that ordered a guitar from him and he waited............................................................................well you know that rest of the story.

from my fingers Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 ARM OF HAMER had most of it right, but I do like the color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shark Posted October 31, 2019 Author Share Posted October 31, 2019 No worries, gentlemen. Ian's a piece of crap for sure. He lied to me no less than 28 times about delivery dates. I have it all in a "file". The guitar, however, is stellar. And I think I have a live one over at TGP! We'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbonesullivan Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 That thing looks awesome! Great color! I've always wanted a V. Those are definitely top notch guitars, regardless of how the guy who made them operates. Worth Every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're good with me, my friend. Somebody's either going to buy it or they won't. A little "discussion" never hurts. Keeps the thread "relevant".
