    Atomic can take up to 30 days to post something in their inventory. They’re MASSIVE!

    It’s just the Dark Metallic Gray finish (Gunmetal) that has a yellowed clearcoat. It looks green over time, but isn’t. I’ve had a Phantom in that color before, and the color under the pick guard was the original gunmetal finish.

    Once again, A.I. regurgitates bullshit. The “genius” tech isn’t able to discern betweeen the headstocks on the set neck versions and the bolt-on versions.

    Martin - I’m positive that it’s a refin, but FBs aren’t very common at all!

    Where are you playing? Somewhere in the DMV?

    Aw man. I was fortunate to have many long chats and even met up with Johnny B. IRL over the years. He will truly be missed around here...

    "Anyway".

    It works!

    Damn. My wife and I saw him one night while on our honeymoon in Brussels. What a legendary talent … 95 is a damned solid run.

    Not sure where you’re seeing anything near 2014! That’s a 1986 serial. I’m 95+% convinced that’s a refin with a redone serial, but it’s damned cool.

    Atomic is my all-time favorite shop, and the gang there is the best, but I still think that’s a refin and a redone serial.
  12. cmatthes
    I still think it’s a refin, but might trek over to see it in person.
  13. cmatthes
    If this isn’t a refin, it’s incredibly clean! https://reverb.com/item/97268839-hamer-usa-firebird-ii-2-guitar-with-case-1980s-white

    I’d do a flat $14k AUD, today only. Shipping anywhere in the Lower 48 included. 😉

    That would have been in 2007 (New Hartford), and I’m pretty sure we would have heard about that many Sustainblocks going out into the wild… 🤔
