santellavision Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 FS: Hamer Jazz Box guitar with original Bigsby tremolo. Near-mint condition. Incredible flamey sides and back. I’d give it a 9.8, not really any dings or marks at all on it. (You can see the 3 small screw holes on the bottom edge, where the old tailpiece was mounted.) Plays really nice with low action and huge tone plugged and un-plugged. Perfect axe to live out your Pat Methany fantasies! 100% original except for added Bigsby (I don't have the old tailpiece). I'm just not playing it much in my non-smoking home. Comes with a really nice, TKL hard-shell case too. Yes, it's an import model, but, it's a killer sounding/playing Jazz Box no less. SOLD!
conorb Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Wow, I didn't even know they did that in an import. Very cool.conorb
Tres Aardvarks Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Damn!!! A buddy has one of those and I keep trying to get it from him. The Bigsby kills it for me though
gorch Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Zenmindbeginner scored one too a while ago. He created some great sounds with it on Soundcloud.
dragan Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Wow, I didn't even know they did that in an import. Very cool.conorb^^^^^what he said
django49 Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Picked up one of those a while ago. But sans Bigsby. Still trying to figure out what to do with it longer term. Debating whether it merits a pickup upgrade. Great value IMO.
cmatthes Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Wow, I didn't even know they did that in an import. Very cool.conorbThe import is the ONLY one they did!Those are way nicer than they had to be too.
django49 Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 ^^^^ Yep......The Improv is a whole different animal.

anotherfreak Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 anybody know the scale length on those? even long/short would be close enough
crunchee Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Hells YEAH, that's nice! Fergit Pat Methany, I'm thinking more like Scotty Moore!
rj2858 Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Wow, I didn't even know they did that in an import. Very cool.conorbThose are way nicer than they had to be too.^^^ THIS!!!I've had one since 2007, and they're great. I'm willing to let mine go, since all I ever reach for anymore is a Daytona and my T-51.IIRC a member here, tobereeno, bought one and had Murkat dress it up with upgrades to bridge, tailpiece and p'ups, and loved it.
santellavision Posted January 16, 2014 Author Posted January 16, 2014 I bought a set of PhatCats and was all set to install them, but, you know, it didn't sound too bad with the original p/ups, so I left them in!
santellavision Posted January 16, 2014 Author Posted January 16, 2014 SOLD!!! Going to a good home with Cynic.
conorb Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Nice one. I'm regretting not sending a PM.conorb
