Dr. Bear Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Asking for a friend. No, really. Truly. For a friend. He asked me to write exactly the following (and I quote) “SS1, fuchsia/crown ebony, black hardware” and said that anyone who has one would know exactly what this describes. My total familiarity with Billy Idol is a) folks in rags populating the video for “Dancing With Myself” and b) the height of Mr. Stevens’ hairstyle qualifying for membership in the B-52s. But a friend is a friend so I’d be quite happy to pass along info out there if one of us in here knows of such a device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirrorimij Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I think former Hamer employee Tracy London had that exact guitar. Is she a member here? Is she on the Facebook group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirrorimij Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Wow Chris. Thanks for letting me know. Shows how out of the loop I am. RIP she was a good person. I knew Annette had passed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyboy-UK Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I’m sad about that too. I didn’t know. Tracey was always great to talk to about Hamers and she had some super examples. Great shame, and a lovely lady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will not stand for that kind of comment, if you persist, I will curse you with fleas and blown pre-amp tubes for the period of ONE YEAR! 😉 Good luck on the search. SS's pop up all the time so don't let them go crazy on the first one they find, though crowned are less common (let alone the color request).
