scottcald Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Relic job on it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/144916512720?hash=item21bdb27fd0:g:0BMAAOSwZIlj0FCp&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAkPEnzcuYw7Ng850F3Ms0fvTbYwmR2HaC7rDWvJeUtfs5nCW4nxfyIUVQ55JfGwh6%2F4J2JJN%2FRlKp4GV%2FRnVL0br1hhyaiQfSYAhRhOnLJeovg17tfBC3vWrAKXW2kFqvRtjWQG%2BxGHTqxxkbzSjqC6W6kLk0z8NUT%2FYCFKRe6NP8TGk1eNL2lk5MxjR%2Fv0ppew%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR-KDgdnAYQ
Jim85IROC Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Hamer neck for sure, but I'm not convinced that anything else is Hamer. That's not the bridge that came on the Daytonas, and nothing else really stands out as original to me either.
scottcald Posted January 31, 2023 Author Posted January 31, 2023 If you like that one, take a look at this claim of Hamer-dom: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175590692950?hash=item28e2055856:g:Uj4AAOSwNtBjzFpF&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoDGihgxp%2BNJDx0NowMParG7zXemCNyRk%2BNi1kVggVq3JPa0phwoyWnqv6KruQfwzotA%2FaJ%2Bp8%2FvEfRDdv%2FSkS9x7qpU2ZUhiAoolCVpDRK2SJdY3BPlPYWKwap4NPdOiDvJm1pC3Z%2FxJZ5M14YmU2yNpxGmbjHSybrVhB5T8hsiOYYGtibKu4qSA026zck%2BHg4oPln0w86c7N353jPPO%2BdQ%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR-aDgdnAYQ

And from the first ad:
Eli Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Actually the vibrato cavity route on the back is the tell that it is a Daytona body. Check the inset plate routing. I don't think any other manufacturers did it in that exact way:

But, at least our friends who finish guitars have nothing to worry about.
Victor (Fret Friend) Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Don't you just hate it when: they don't include an image of the guitar in full? I know I do... (sorry, nothing significant to add)
mirrorimij Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 What Eli said. That neck and body is Hamer USA.

I don't think any other manufacturers did it in that exact way: great catch! Now I'm watching this auction. If it stays in a reasonable range maybe I'll throw a bid in so I can refinish it in something a bit more respectable, like perhaps gloss clear to lock in that beautiful body customization.
hamerican gigolo Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Whoever did those " mods " should be horse whipped! 😤
jujisque Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Well, I did a thing. I bought it Might be a fun project, might be a huge mistake. Wish me luck!
Cboss Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I was going to get that if it went cheap, have been wanting to use this color for a while, that was the plan house of kolor pagan gold

I was watching it but I just dropped $700 on 4 guitars this week so I decided that I have enough projects for now. 🙄

Cboss Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 I painted a Flying V with another color of theirs and it came out really nice, 2K clear gives an awesome glossy tough finish
