HamerCustomEr Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Great deals! Good luck with the sales!
Jonig Posted December 31, 2021 Author Posted December 31, 2021 Thank you Sir sad to see them go, as they had been my “go to guitars” for everything due to the awesome variation in sound and playability, but I’m just not gigging anymore so better to go to a good home. cheers John
Redredwine Posted January 1, 2022 Posted January 1, 2022 What's the scale length on the Californian? Cheers.
Jonig Posted January 2, 2022 Author Posted January 2, 2022 Hi there ref scale length no idea buddy, 27 frets and all as it came from the factory, perhaps some Hamer boffin from this site could assist you with that John
Hbom Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 Californian (1987 - 1997) - Downsized contoured body with scalloped offset double cutaways, bolt-on maple neck (25.5 inch scale length) with pointed headstock (see Chaparral Bolt-on below), 27 frets on a dot-inlay rosewood fingerboard. Fitted with one humbucker and one single coil pickup and Floyd Rose trem.. The Elite version has upgraded pickups (OBL, EMG or Seymour Duncan), ebony fingerboard, boomerang inlays and optional figured maple body. The Custom version is as the Elite but has a glued-in neck with a sculpted neck/body joint. Also sometimes fitted with Sustainiac circuitry (circa 1990 only). There are also 12-String and double-neck (6 + 12) versions. 1990 Californian (buddlejagarden.co.uk)
