Whatever, may the high bid WIN! I've never understood why people retract bids if they have multiple ID's. I don't even get why people retract bids, period.
Saw 6 deer, passed on a big fork, 2 guys got 6 pointers. BIG ones... The Packer game was just as bloody, ouch. Brett was OFF...Oh well. My Hamer Auction ends tonight! I passed on more offers, of course. Any fake auctions pop up yet?
Damn..Another one that got away, haw... I sold it to the guitar player in the Lubricants, I think...It's probably in some blackhole Hamer collection now.
I wish I had a document/pic of it, someone told me it was made in 1976. It was factory, no mods. Sold it for 600, ow...It wuz bad azz. That was a long time ago. It is what it is. What it was. Was the binding on Sunbursts/Specials kaput after 1982? I remember seing tons of Hamer Specials (or Sunbursts?) and not liking them cuz they didn't have binding.
I also had an early Sunburst - bound w/ a sunburst flame top-BUT... The guitar was set up with a separate Gibson bridge and tailpiece, not the usual one piece combo thing... Were those common?
