Sorry you had to sit through that set to see a Hamer. You should be awarded a medal for your trouble. 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Disturber 4,550 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Stay is actually a pretty good song. It was on the Reality Bites soundtrack from 1994. I have that CD somewhere. Back from the day when soundtracks could be an awesome way to find new artists and bands, when a soundtrack CD really ment something. Some good power pop tunes on this CD: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110950/soundtrack 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am not a huge fan of the red iteration, but loved the clear-over-spruce version @Feynman had for a week or so (replaced gold hardware with chrome IIRC). There is one, however, with a quilted maple top in a brown(-ish) hue.and tort binding. I missed that one by about an hour a few years back. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cmatthes 20,651 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 The shame is all mine. I was facilitating the delivery of Steve's Newport and realized that I hadn't taken any decent photos, so pulled over and took a shitty pic. I'll do better next time. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was all on fire to get a MIII in 2018, one came up for sale, and I sold my Newport, my last Hamer, to get it. I was just about to send the money off when we had a family medical emergency. Everything is good with the fam now but it’s doubtful I’ll ever get a MIII. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smith 38 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I believe that is Mark Spencer playing that MIII in the video. He's played with Jay Farrar, Son Volt, etc. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
