  • Another Hamer question

    Has anyone played the Sunburst Archtop series. I see them on ebay for around $350.00. I know they are not a USA made guitar. I am looking for this type of guitar. I would Like a LP Studio but can't afford that right now. I have a Hamer Chaparral Custom and it is a well made guitar.

    Re: Another Hamer question

    The archtops are a good basic guitar. Since they are the import models, they do not have the same high quality wood selection or electronics as the USA models. They are built solid, though. They have the Duncan Design pickups which I don't care for. They are definitely a good alternative to spending 3 times as much for a US model. However, I am a bit of a Hamer snob as I have two USA models. I've been spoiled so I would save up until I could buy a US model. But, that is just my opinion. Nothing wrong with the imports, I just prefer the American mades. To me, they are worth every penny.

      American made Hamers kick ass and can be found for pretty cheap, as they don't seem to hold their value that well. Search ebay or other classified sections for some great deals.
