DaveL Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Superpro. GC Hollywood. They seem to get cool stuff in that store. No hard case and non original tuners (and knobs) but seems more fair than some of these wacky Craigslist listings. https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/Hamer/Monaco-Superpro-Hollow-Body-Electric-Guitar.gc
kizanski Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 $1800? Fuck the case. Go grab it! ETA: For the love of all that is holy, replace those fucking knobs!
Feynman Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 ...and the gold schtuff. I do appreciate that they blurred out its naughty frets.

polara Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 What would the original tuners have been? IIRC they still would have been Schallers, just with the fancy buttons. Looks like no extra holes drilled.

kizanski Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Looks like someone snagged it. My money's on @BadgerDave, you know, for the knobs.
currypowder Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 I've never owned a Superpro and am currently Hamer-less. So I'm going to give this one a try. Will likely put new pickups (or at least cover them, depending) and may swap the hardware to chrome/nickel as I really don't like the gold. But I'm going to keep the knobs just to grind @kizanski's gears! JK, the knobs will be the first to go!
kizanski Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 In my opinion, the SuperPro is the perfect guitar. Selling mine wasn't easy (and I am also Hamer-less). I'm glad an HFCer was able to snag this one.

If you're going to replace the knobs, ya gotta go with something from an oven, or a 30's table radio. Not some cast-off MII Fender crap.

polara Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Great guitars. I just don’t need one as my Framus is also a semi hollow single cut with 25.5-in scale, humbuckers, tuna-magic bridge and tone for days. But SuperPros are awesome.

MCChris Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Wow. If that's what jacked up SuperPros are going for, I might have to think about cashing out.
