crunchee Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 No affiliation. The S/N on the back of the headstock looks like either a '88 or '89, I can't quite tell. With original case, Kahler too: https://davesguitar.com/products/hamer/late-80s-scarab-ii/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortious Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 If the Item Code is the serial number (and it usually is), then it's an 84. 412400 Looks pretty cool. None more black. Nice price. Someone grab it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortious Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 After carefully reviewing the photos, I see no string ferrules in the back. According to the 'expert' in the 83 Vector thread https://www.hamerfanclub.com/forums/topic/87355-kahler-bridge-on-83-vector/ Paul Hammer would not have done this. 🙃 Digging through the archives, it was for sale from South Carolina here almost 7 years ago https://www.hamerfanclub.com/forums/topic/59158-84-scarab-and-85-scarab-bass/ the good old days, when things were sooo much cheaper. Always fascinating to wonder how it made its way from SC to WI, and where to next. From the 2013 for sale thread: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchee Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 My memory must be slipping, I should have remembered that a inked S/N wouldn't be late '80's! Thanks for the research, Tortious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
