        I believe it is pronounced "Ja mer" in many households.

          I emailed customer service at Hamer guitars. Do you think they'll get back to me?:ROTF: I actually found the Hamer custom shop video on Youtube and they dont say Hamer once in the whole damn thing. Cool video though. Actually, my grandmothers maiden name was Hamerlin and it was pronounced Hammerlin, actually more like Hommerlin. So, when I say Hammer, think of it in a German accent sounding like Hommer. Im not insane Dammit!!!!:ROTF: :ROTF:

            "Ja mer" means "Yes more" in Norwegian:ROTF:

                There's lots of words that i have pronounced wrongly, especially new cars they bring out!

                Oh and no one can ever say my name how it is meant to be when i was christened so I prefer to be called by my initial 'v'.

                  I always pronounce it "Hammer"

                  because of the Dutch word "Hamer" which is:



                  So a Dutch hamer is a hammer.. that's why I pronounce hamer as hammer haha. Never really thought about. It's probably hay-mer.. but hammer slammer sounds better.

                          Based on that, are they Krammer guitars or Kramer guitars?

                                I think Sammy Hagger was a great lead singer.
