lang Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I do not need another guitar. Someone buy this before I do! No affiliation. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-Hamer-USA-Newport-P90-Guitar-Hamer-Hard-Case-RARE/293966462774?hash=item4471c43f36:g:NmoAAOSw~DNgCc6a
Carl.B Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 The seller has a few other Hamer guitars listed too. Newport: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-Hamer-USA-Korina-Special-Transparent-Cherry-P90-Hamer-Hard-Case-RARE/303855299393?hash=item46bf2feb41:g:aHUAAOSwQ-hgCI6a https://www.ebay.com/itm/1992-Hamer-USA-Special-Cherry-P90-Hamer-Hard-Case/303855220518?hash=item46bf2eb726:g:-C0AAOSwNntgCHcB
velorush Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Just saw this. I'd have been all over that Newport, but then again, I don't even remember my eBay password... it's been a really long time... and good riddance!
ArnieZ Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I'm feeling a little sick over missing that Newport 90. Sold for what a good condition Newport would get. Definitely would have bought it😩 arniez
kizanski Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Yeah, those don't last long. Someone scored big there.
stedge Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Same boat here. Been looking for an n90 and slipped right past me, dang it. That other korina special i thought just sold on reverb and was formerly owned by an HFCer. I think?.....
G Man Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Wow, that went fast. No surprise there, but damn.
specialk Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Great sentence in the ad: "If needed, buyer should get purchase approval from their spouse (or significant other) BEFORE buying."
stedge Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 you know, you're at work, putting in a hard day, and you stop surfing for one gosh darn minute and the f@#$%^& guitar pops up and is gone before you finish a dump and have some coffee and get back to surfin. Dangit.
soli'd Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 That Korina special is very similar to my first Hamer, but mine had Tonepros wraptail and tuners (Kluson style). I really fought with that hardware; if mine had grovers like this one I may have kept it. I've searched for years for a Newport 90; would've been gutted missing this one if it weren't for shish 91, which vanquished that GAS, and did so in style. 😎
BoogieMKIIA Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 How to tell if the Special is Korina or a ‘hog with a pick guard?

stedge Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I asked. THere is no certificate available. I suspect you could track it down somehow, but I am too lazy.
cynic Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I know TO isn't unusual for Newports, but it's particularly cool on that New90.
