Eli Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 No affiliation, not sure about those knobs... But, that's a nice slice of Koa! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hamer-Studio-USA-model-Electric-guitar/324239595179?hash=item4b7e2f96ab:g:OgMAAOSwh8pfGfBh
Travis Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Oh, fuck me... when did Hamer make a koa studio outside of the limited edition run of 9 with the wraptails...? not a fan of the pickups, rings or hardware. But... koa studio...
topekatj Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Tummy cut on the back, too, just like the koa wraptail LE. What's up with the filler on the mahogany -- Looks dry, are they trying to match the look of the grain of the koa top?

Micro Hameritis?

Elduave was working with me on a KOA Studio back in 09, but the cost of the KOA up charge was off the chart. Since they didn't have Koa in stock, I has going to have to say yes or no to a poor picture of a unspilt slab of wood. That was the deal breaker.

Not a fan of the knobs, hardware or pickups on this one. And the picture doesn’t show the koa well (hello, natural daylight...?) but I’m still tempted...
