HAMERMAN Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Very Matthes-esque - with the exception of Gold hardware IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And FWIW gold be a'ight. 🧐 Not a bad price for a partscaster, though I still can't get into the relic'd maple necks. That pickguard assembly looks very WD or 920D.

JGale Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Just don't get the Big Matthes! I saw a picture of him once with a Hamer Standard. Damn thing looked like a toy in his mitts. Yowsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmatthes Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I would TOTALLY rawk that. I've got another one "in the works" right now though... A featherweight Musikraft body and neck - powered by a trio of TV Jones Super'Trons. This clocks in just over 6lbs without strings. Digging the Real Teal Dark Pearl finish on this one.
