Yes.

That's an early jazzburst.  Not very similar to the finish it became.

Now on Reverb for $2000 + shipping.

I was following this with a passing interest on CL I am 10 minutes away from this. Now the CL ad is down. I was waiting to see if he lowered it again then trying to make a deal. What would you all consider a good cash offer for this?

This search should bring you back a list of 13 Hamer Newports (and 1 Steve Stevens....) that have sold semi-recently on Reverb.  If you don't get 14, adjust your "Locale Settings" to be "Everywhere Else".

Thanks for that tutorial. But I was wondering what people in the Hamer community would think was a good price (for the buyer) for that guitar.

I think it’s priced properly. The market however is very slow right now so maybe the seller would take an offer in the high teens. If not now, try in a couple of weeks.
