What a talent. Even in his later years, gripped with Alzheimers. Way underappreciated.

As are Hamer 12vers, BTW. Shameless pron.......

In the '60s, he used a Mosrite Mark XII; one of the rare 12-string electrics that feature an optional vibrato. This instrument was also on the cover of the Gentle On My Mind album

And although it's not a 12-er, here's another unique model he used---a Mosrite Celebrity CE-1 Mark I(full depth).

...and he posed for publicity/advertising photos with a personalized Dobro D-100 Californian hybrid guitar.

Incredible how clean and precise his 8th-note and 16th-note picking was on a 12-string.  Better than most of us on six-string, which speaks volumes about how talented and practiced he was.
