There's one with the 3 soundholes at the local GC. You could google it. They are asking just under $1000 and it seems to be in good shape. I don't know if that's a fair price or even in the ballpark. They haven't had it long. If anyone's interested, let me know.

This kind of question implies two: what is it worth, and what is the street value? I believe that Hamers are, like Ovations, undervalued. Those USA Duotones are worth that price, but thats a good bit over the street price.

See how much lower you can get them to go.

I don't think I can get them low enough to justify messing with it. My pal at GC that used to give me some deals left to go to work for Taylor. The OFC will maintain my interest for a long time. Then I need to find some time to do some justice to an electric guitar.

Hamer makes some excellent guitars. I don't think they're nearly the steal in the secondary market that they were a couple of years ago, though.

The Hamer I'm jonesing for at the moment is the Talladega. But its O-U-T of my price range.

An older USA Duotone was recently posted for sale on the Hamer Fan Club board at $1295, and it may have sold.... which would make THIS one a good buy, eh?
