GEEZ.................Apparently "Lightening Joe's Guitar Heaven" STILL has this Studio Custom for sale and no wonder, what a price. This guitar was listed on the website back when I joined the HFC back in 2012! Cool guitar though. Hamer Studio Custom (2007) Trans White | Reverb

By far the biggest difference I found was that the artist, at least the one I had, is extremely bass shy and is focused on upper mids. The long story is that I have a 93 Special with Lollar p90s that I absolutely love the sound of, but I wanted something a little "nicer" with a fuller neck profile, so I bought an Artist to swap the lollars into. I didn't like how the Artist sounded, but I attributed it to the hot ceramic Duncans. I swapped the Lollars in and it sounded much, much better, but also much different from the Special. The lollars helped tame the ice-pick highs and the screeching upper mids, but were still very bass shy. It probably would have sat really well in a mix, but it wasn't the full range, very PAF-ish sound that I loved in the Special. Lollars went back into the Special and the Artist went down the road. I just recently picked up a p90 Studio, and I haven't swapped the Lollars in yet, but even with the stock Duncans the difference is night and day. This guitar sounds fantastic. Very full range, just like the Special. No pokey upper mids, no ice-pick highs. I have high hopes that this one will give me the sound that I'm after with the Lollars. (Seller's pic - I haven't really photographed this one yet)

Imagine that...the tonal and tactile bliss of playing through real amps cooking at high volume. That's the stuff.

Must be a prototype!

Probably not anyone quite that competent. Some Harbor Freight tools can actually be used a second time without breaking.

I remember seeing this guitar listed on a different part of the country. Same pics...Low price...Buyer beware! https://hartford.craigslist.org/msg/d/hartford-hamer-firebird-white-cream/7838063975.html

I've seen comments in other forums that a fair amount of these could be DOA (shitty builds). Check them out in person (play them)and buyer beware lol... it's not like manufacturers dump defective goods at GC

Get your own material.

NOW SOLD...! Thank You

How much for one?

At that price it should be in a glass case rotating. I think it has been the same price the whole time too.

Why? Are Gibson Maestro pedals made by Harbor Freight??

One of the songs that motivated me to keep playing… and to get a Les Paul. Mr. Trucks carries Duane’s flame.

How much for just 10??

That doesn't necessarily mean he won't still use the FB Messenger. The Messenger app can be used independently from one's FB account. I deleted my FB account 10 years ago, but I still use FB Messenger.

Mitch, you may be surprised to learn what 'with benefits' means. Not that's there's anything wrong with that....... Anyways - congrats on the cool gear and the even cooler friends.

Artist. With the right amp and volume, you can really get them to sing.

Finally AI put to good use.

Sorry Dave. I didn't mean to sound like that. 😗
