    Speaking of Hamers

    Here's a couple of pictures of my Hamers I snapped the other day. I think some of you might recognize the one second to the left. I just wired up the Distortion/Pearly Gates on it yesterday. I won't have a chance to try it until tonight. But assuming I wired everything correctly, I'll give a review on the results later on.

    Noice!!

    Are the necks similar between all of the hamers?
    I've never had a californian up close, I've only tried a korean stuido and my korean standard. They seemed similar to each other, but probably can't compare to the USA models.

      The Mirage and the Special FM seem to have very similar necks with a medium thickness to them ('94 Mirage and '95 Special). The Artist is much beefier ('01) but still has a very familiar feel to it. The Diablo (95) has a bit of a chunkier neck for a shredder but is still very comfortable. The Californian has the thinnest neck of all but is nowhere near as thin as an Ibanez Wizard.

      All in all, even with the different neck profiles, I've never played a USA Hamer that didn't feel comfortable right away. There's always a familiar feel to them even when dramatically different in profile.

          Your Californian is very cool.

            I can't even remember who I traed that for (someone on here). I traded a red model 4 for it then I refinished the Cali. That model 4 was a nice guitar, but it just didn't speak to me as much as the Cali does.
