[straycat]

Picked this up today as trading fodder for the next guitar show.
Pretty sweet guitar overall all original.May just end up keeping it.
Duncan P-90's wound by "J"

I like that one a lot. USA Hamers are such great guitars for the money.

For a basic bare bones USA guitar it feels great just like a L.P.Jr or special.
Long neck tenon, great pick ups and electronics how can you go wrong?

yeah anything gibson can do Hamer does better. USA Hamers are just great guitars. just wish they made the USA scepter, scepter Vs and scarabs still...and re-issue the KK Vector. i can dream cant i.

[straycat]

I do like the KK vector a lot.

Hell yeah! I've got a black '94 Special with humbuckers (JB/59) that I love. And I had a '95 Special FM (5/8" flamed maple top) that was also great.

Killer playing no doubt.Duncan SP2 and SP3 are perfect tone wise.Took a bit of tweaking to get them to sing but they do now.

Very nice. I have only run across a couple of those for sale in my area over the years. You might want to hang onto it. Hey, you have that P90 sound when you want it.

[Sinistas]

One of these is for sale locally, except it's got a hum in the bridge. Wish I had the scratch!

[straycat]

I've seen the two hum version but not a 1 hum very cool

Thats a great guitar, but $1500 is waaaay overpriced. I sold a 93 (jb/59) a couple of years ago for $400.. It was pretty beat up, but was a killer player. Bought it from a guy here.
