Californian Deluxe Value

[nologantogive]

Hello Hamer Enthusiasts!

I've got a question regarding a Californian Deluxe I keep seeing on Reverb, and I'm wondering if they are worth the price tag that's attached to this one. I've heard some people say their decent mid range guitars, and I've heard some people say their worth about $300 new. I have a CX3 at the moment that's MIK and they aren't that great. Just wondering if the Deluxes are about the same or if I should just hold out on a USA Californian

Thanks again for any advice!

$1,000 for an import? That's plain crazy!

It’s The Music Zoo.  Their Hamer prices have never been grounded in reality.

My two cents, don't touch it just get a USA.. I have both and will be getting rid of my imports, phasing them out.. when you pick up a USA there is something very special there..whatever combination of goodness the USA's have the Imports do not

I have an important Monaco that is really nice, I have an import Diablo that is very similar to this one in your listing and it is irritating how cheap it is

I thought it was pretty nuts when I saw it. I felt $600 would've been a bit more respectable at least, but from the sounds of it I might just save up some dough and get the real deal if it's really like that. Thanks for the input!
