kizanski Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Oh man... Here we go. Time for me to kick myself again. I had the opportunity (actually more than one) to buy that years ago. Passed like a fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velorush Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 According to this, there are three. Here are two (old BCR Greg post): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmatthes Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 This is a later one than the two in Doc Large's photo above. This was ordered by my local Hamer dealer in Winston-Salem, NC in the mid-1980s (Sam Moss). He also ordered the Electroglides around the same time.

Disturber Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I know where it is...... The Sam Moss Duoglide. Funny, this guitar is very similar to a PRS Santana. Double cut, 24 frets, maple top, double humbuckers. But the PRS Santana came out in 1995, so this Hamer precedes it with almost 10 years. It has about the same thickness to the body as a 1970's Les Paul. A rare bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives one the impression that Jol and Paul might have been wise to consult ol' Sam (RIP) in planning new model specs. But I realize that's not the way the world works.

Steve Haynie Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The tuners covering parts of the logo looks wrong, too. Those two with smaller Hamer logos look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me the ginormous TRC forces the big logo north. With a smaller TRC the logo could have been located better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
