iownit4 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 So I've been staying at my father in laws who is recovering from a knee replacement surgery!! I lived here in his with my wife while we were in between moves about 5 yrs ago and of course I left a bunch of gear behind in our old bedroom .. so I started going though cases and was reunited with this 1982 special that was white and beat up bad at one time that I had re-done by Aaron Henderson of lowel guitars.. he did fret job crown inlays and new top. Crazy how I haven't played this guitar in maybe 7 yrs and thing plays and sounds amazing. I had to tweak the neck lil and that's it .. i let her Rip..

Drew816 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 You've made my poor '81 non-Checkerboard feel sad and inadequate now... 😉 That thing looks fantastic, not sure how you could stay away from it for 7 years! Got anymore lying around, we'd be happy to help you out and take up the slack to insure these guitars get played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iownit4 Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 Lol I know it sounds crazy. I've been in the music scene & biz since 1991. Gigging and I owned a studio in NYC & staten island... so I just accumulated so much gear over the years from artists & company's and in some cases payments ..I do occasionally sell something. It's hard to let good guitars go . When I take them out to take pics of the them I change my mind lol...here is my now home studio I use mostly for band rehearsal. I do have zoom r8 & pro tools rig ready to go ..as for hamers I do have about 12 hamer usa sunburst early 90s . I do perfer thinner neck profile still.. if I do decide to sell any of course I sell here too keep them in the family! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
