DaveX Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 These are being advertised on Ebay Kleinanzeigen (=Small Ads, a free service, NO charges!) As usual: No Affiliation! 1. KORINA VECTOR Flying V https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/hamer-vector-korina-flying-v-usa-gibson-flying-v-korina-/1579045052-74-1791 2. MONACO ELITE (ex Pete Flynn) https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/hamer-monaco-elite-usa-ex-pete-flynn-keine-les-paul/1575167399-74-3454 Prices seem reasonable in both cases, if I had the cash I would like to buy them both!-) but in these Corona times I just have to hold back...😐 There are a few more USA Hamers listed here but I think these two are definitely by far the most interesting!

Montelovesco Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Maybe we should add this 1980 special: https://m.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/hamer-special-maple-top-1980er/1579224104-74-8190 No affiliation, as always.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially for a 1980. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeVai Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Please explain the printed serial number issue. Forgetful in my old age. I seem to recall it being discussed but can't find the conversations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall it being discussed but can't find the conversations. The serial number would have been printed back then but that font isn't close to what was used by Hamer. ETA: And it's an '81 serial number but the ad says "1980" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 It's also been sanded from the original finish and the contours and headstock shape are all messed up. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montelovesco Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Actually, it says „1980er“, which means „eighties“... Probably... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google Translator shows "...a Hamer Special from 1980 first series," but I suppose either could be right. One thing I know is not right is that serial number stamping.

Montelovesco Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Lou, you are right - I was talking about the headline, but the ad itself is more precise (and obviously wrong).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
