DBraz Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 For me it’s my ‘92 Virt. I leave it for a while, pick it up, plug it in and... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disturber Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Most probably my 1995 Korina Standard. But it's almost an even draw between that one and the 78 or 80 four digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshoowah Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Been thinking hard on this, and ended up with 3 answers. ONLY ELECTRIC, ONLY HAMER, or Hamer I don't currently own. If it's my ONLY electric, my Artist Custom. I'm generally a G-scale (24.75) player, and it's such a versatile tool! It's also my first Hamer, and one I wanted for almost 25 years before finally pulling the trigger - and vastly overpaying - so it has a special place in my heart. If it's my ONLY HAMER, but I can still keep my LP Special, my Jazzburst SuperPro, all day long! F-scale (25.5) makes me think and play differently, and I love the wider physical spread of the pickups in an otherwise loosely ES/LP style guitar. And while many wax poetic about the original pups in a SuperPro, the Alnico 2 Pros that came in mine are so sweet, I can't justify the PITA of subjecting it to the repeated swaps for minimal improvement many guitars go through. It's a tone monster already! If it's a Hamer I don't currently own, the two I most desire atm (but have never played an example of either, so it could be a bad idea) are the @Pieman Ultimate Quilt Tiger Eye Tally Pro currently for sale or an Artist Ultimate. But I'm afraid I'd be content to just look at that Tally and never play it... it's almost too pretty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ua D Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 This one. The looks match the tone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jfritts Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 An 8 string V bass bound with boomers would excite me quite a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottcald Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Since all you guys are only keeping one, that'd drive prices down, so I'd have to pick up some of them. 😆 But, it'd probably be the 2001 Artist Korina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew816 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Are you SURE it can only be "one?" Why not, ya know, three? '91 Sunburst, '93 FM, '92 Sunburst. '91 Murkat pickups and re-vitalized before I got it man probably 10-12 years ago? '93 FM featured elsewhere with the metal covers off the Marshallheads and '92 from Iownit/Robert is really a colour I'd call Watermelon Slushy, maybe Strawberry Ice with a great chevron 3D top and low wind Fralin Pure PAFs. My '81 Special is not pictured, I'm restoring it as we speak: De-Kahler'ing and making progress. Covid-time has been good for some things anyway...

specialk Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 There was an orange/white "Dreamsicle" I saw here once and of course forgot to grab a pic. Probably that one, just cause it's been taking up so many of my fewer and fewer brain cells all these years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoogieMKIIA Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Since I only have one, I will keep it. If not this, either a Korina Special Jr or a 4 digit Sunburst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks like a keeper! if you ever find a 4-digit Sunburst, let us know... 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoogieMKIIA Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I should say 5 digit Sunburst. 1 hour ago, cmatthes said: That looks like a keeper! if you ever find a 4-digit Sunburst, let us know... 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamer_SS_guy Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Hmm, of the 7 Hamers I have I use 3 frequently, and one of them is a bass. I think, my green Cali (see profile pic) would be that guitar. But I am lucky that I don't need to sell any guitars so far. Though I need a new job. It will be tough.
