Ah - missed that - the sea foam is a looker for sure!

Absolutely on the Elmwood. Let me know when you've got some spare time. I've been running it as a 3/4 stack - :rawk: Bring your vector and we'll have a grand 'ol time! Korina is sweet.
 
Had this dream machine built in 87 by Paul Hamer and crew. Not a Blitz and not a Scarab. They let me have everything I wanted on it! Reverse les Paul electronics/ebony board/extended neck from the body/lower toggle/(one-time) screaming white finish/floyd etc.. Just got around to having him sign it last night (+2 others)! This guitar has been a true joy for many years and still cuts heads regularly! After many hundreds of guitars I've had, this is still my true LOVE. It was an priviledge to talk and see him again. Paul Hamer and Hamer players are my kind of peoples![attachment=0]Hamer.JPG[/attachment][attachment=1]Paul signing.JPG[/attachment]

Old thread I know but USA Hamers are my favorite guitars. Still have my '89 USA Californian

In the past I had a granite USA Centaura and a USA Diablo Limited which were also epic

Also owned a Korean Standard which was fantastic, and a Chinese XT Sunburst Flat Top that was also surprisingly good, especially considering how cheap it was
 
Shit, just took a gander on Reverb and USA Hamer is pretty expensive. Now this is asking for prices. Whether they sell or not, IDK.

Yeah, the days of getting insane Hamer USA deals are pretty much gone sadly :(


I bought my USA Californian for $420; these days even a beat to shit/broken one is like $1000 minimum
 
A pretty mint USA Diablo sat here for a while; 1k. Finally sold. Great guitars
 
Yeah Centauras and Diablos do tend to sell for less than most of the others for some reason. I've also owned one of each and can confirm they are awesome
