gorch Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 That's a very nice one! I have played mine just yesterday. Absolutely stunning and a keeper. That price range raises ???, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Shark Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I think my Standard is worth more than i thought it was worth. And that's a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarab85 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Bummer. This is one on my list. The ever elusive natural flame top Standard. That is beautiful!!! Glad it went before I could see it because that makes it easier. Also the fact that I'm having new HVAC installed which depletes this year's guitar money. Maybe someday.....

DaveL Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Ed's standard, I 'm pretty sure was from one of the last open house, I wanted it, but Ed was really fast... I think it might be more stunning than these pics suggest. When Mike offered his limited run of Ultimates, I had based mine on what I remembered about Ed's guitar... didn't get it exactly right but same ballpark.

Didn’t Hamer just use toners/tints for the most part? I feel the dyed finishes on some guitars can kill this effect and look blotchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarab85 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Anybody have any idea how many Standards Hamer made in natural flame? Just wondering how much of a unicorn they are. If my dream is obtainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 They're out there. There were a fair number of 4-digits in that finish, and I ordered one in '90-'91. It was a stock finish in the mid-1990s and until they closed up shop ("Antique Natural"). The downside is that there just aren't that many Standards out there to begin with, compared to other guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoogieMKIIA Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 As I understand it, Hamer applied clear first, then used color/toner on top of clear, then additional clear. No stain went into the wood. The tops had to be good enough to look good without being painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disturber Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Congrats to the new owner. It has the colour of butter, so I bet it plays like butter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
