Another F-ing Hamer Project

Heh heh... gon' be sick, yo!

Body's en route to the painter for some 80's inspired crackle! Found a real talented builder to do me up a maple/maple neck with reversed head stock, jumbo Jescar stainless frets and some sick inlays on the board. Gonna feature an OFR and a Gravelin custom handmade p'up in the bridge.

Nah, not me. But yeah, I'm pretty freakin' stoked about this one. The finish and the inlays alone make it a standout project.

All those who are not surprised please give us a show of hands...

Zombie thread- Haven't been on here in a while, frankly because not much was going on here. That said, I finally wrapped up this project back in late March. After The Paint Guys hooked up the body with some sweet crackle, Shane Huss at HEL made me a fantastic new neck for it! The neck is a work of functional art and a nice amalgamation of specs from both Hamer and J/C with a compound radius of 12' - 14". I stopped at 14" because the Hamer necks were all 14" and are very comfortable. I added an OFR w/ fat brass block, a Gravelin Mongoose in the bridge and a SD Hot Rails in the neck. A WD toggle switch CTS 500K pot and Schaller strap locks completed this project! Seriously badass! Best of both worlds, Hamer and Jackson/Charvel IMHO.

Looks great! Those inlays are very cool.

The whole project turned out sick. The paint is sweet. I love the customized headstock too. I think I might have to copy you on that if you don't mind.
