I was contacted by Ken Skaggs who as many of you know, played rhythm guitar and lap/pedal steel for Glen for over 20 years. He's got a Hamer electric which was built for Glen, up for sale. Take a look at it and if you're interested, contact Ken at the email he has listed. Ken's a good guy and honest as can be.

Yeah, those fretboard inlays are WAY too much for my tastes

I like the purdy blue and the GC connection but... too many Nike logos!  Smiley

<p>The craftsmanship and build quality of Hamer guitars is second to none. I'm sure this one is top notch, plus the GC connection may provide added appeal to some. While the fret markers don't personally bother me, I have never cared for the look of exposed double-row humbucker pickups, and prefer Hamer's more classic 3 tuners-per-side headstock. That's just me. YMMV</p>

Cool Guitar; and yes, it will be a collectible; personally, I like Glen's Ovation and Adamas guitars...the Bluebird 12 is my personal favorite...
