Green sunburst


Recommended Posts

I remember that one from a couple decades ago.  The owner has a Rick Nielsen connection (the guitar was never Rick's, but he photographed some of Rick's guitars...and Rick's HFC Presentation Award from 1999).

Was the back green ?

Yes, I believe so.

IIRC, there's other Hamer 'greenbursts' out there as well, isn't there?  Seems like I remember hearing that this color has a tendency to fade, and also that there was a limited run of imported Hamers (not USA-made) in this color as well, before Hamer was sold off.

1981 Sunburst on top, and 1980 Special ("Dawn") below.  Dawn has more fading of the green into brown (primarily on the neck and sides), and the Sunburst has only a little brown on the neck.  Dawn has been played a lot more than the Sunburst though.

Is that Rick in the background getting into his Fiero?

He's pissing on the door handle.

You mean Rick didn't cherish that and keep it forever?

Rick still has it.  The guy was shooting a bunch of Rick’s guitars and he brought it to the shoot.
