Lockbody Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Sold my last Hamer a Newport in 2018 to buy a M3 when I had a family medical emergency and had to use that $ plus sell most of my other stuff. Anyway, things are starting to turnaround and I actually feel like playing the guitar these days vs the past two years. I think the next thing I want to do is another Teh Br00tAlz band and want a Hamer for it, but finances are still a bit in what could be best described as a rebuilding year. However, when I was talking with her recently about it, LockbodyWife uttered the words “Then why don’t you see if someone has one for sale?” Challenge accepted. So, any one got something cheap, Hamer, with a humbucker and a talent bar of some sorts to get me back in the fold? Old breaks, cracks, doinks, bad refin or needs one, and so on? Got something that you wouldn’t normally ever sell because it’s not worth anything? It would be to me. About the only thing I don’t like in a Hamer is the early 80s 1 9/16” nut width. Looking at asking prices on Reverb, I realize my “cheap” may not line up with reality these days, so here’s hoping. I also realize there are plenty of fantastic imports out there, especially geared towards harder-edge music, but I’ve just got the Hamer jones. Never mind, I found something. Thanks!

Jakeboy Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 If you find something with a tuneomatic/stoptail, you can always slap a Les a Trem iI on it. Non-invasive, effective and easy. This will give you more Hamers to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about it, and considering the only offer I've got was for one of two nineties Specials, one with humbuckers, maybe I should reconsider.

I was just thinking of some bad-ass back-in-the-day Hamers. I think most on this board are either like you and me and down to a couple, or collecting Shishkovs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
