I've been enjoying my USA 2001 Hamer Studio and now I'm interested in a Semi Hollow like the Newport. As far as neck profile, I'm not sure but I think my studio has the vintage carve. It's more of a medium carve to me. I know it's not a thin carve and definitely not a "V" carve. I really like the neck on my Studio and wondered if the Newport would be the same as my Studio. I don't like thin necks like an older Studio had that I had tried. And I definitely don't like a V carve like the Talladega had that I had tried. It had my hand fatigued within minutes of playing. Thin carve necks also fatigue my hand. As far as sound, would you say the Newport is closer to an es335 or PRS HBii? What are the best pickups in the Newport for cleans, jazz and mild OD? I've seen that some have a Bigsby. The only guitar I've owned with a Bigsby was a Gretsch. It was not easy to keep it in tune. What should I expect to pay for a Newport that's in excellent condition? Is there anything I should look for or lookout for? Thanks, Res
