cmatthes Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 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).

crunchee Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 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.

stonge Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 not the droids you are looking for... 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.

stonge Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 while it's a bummer that faded, at least it turned into a pretty nice color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
