I should be getting my "Bluebird" 12-string soon so I have lowered my asking price on my Hamer Newport 12-string to $1,300, free (USA) shipping. This is a Mint guitar, rarely played, no dings, no scratches, Birdseye Maple w/rosewood fretboard, and the Hamer case is perfect. Ser.# 151173 Made in Hartfort, CT See it in MEMBER ACCESS under the George album selection.

Tony, Great grab! :D

I talked to George about this one several months ago but ended up getting a Deacon 12 string from Sam.

Beautiful guitar that sounds wonderful. Like they said, best 12 string currently made, hands down!

Al,

I guess you're right, I DO owe you one for telling Tony how much you miss your Hamer Newport 12-string.
I'm seriously considering putting in an order with you for the 1687-8 Reissue but want to see how the OFC guitar will be configured first.

God Bless ya' my friend!

George

Dang, there goes my shot at a jazzbox. Oh well, I guess the uke will have to suffice for now. Unless Alpep is harboring a fugitive three-hole Duotone. The thought of a Hamer with an Ovation bridge....

Your Preacher 12 has nothing to get upset about. It can easily run toe to toe with the Newport 12.

Course, based on looks, the Preacher is an ugly little thing next to the Newport.

Keep em both happy....hang the Newport on the wall and play the hell out of the Preacher ;)

Excuse me, but I have a Preacher 12 string. It is not an "ugle little thing".

Ok, maybe a little better interuption. It will actually be on topic! :rolleyes:

Friday I requested the Talented duo in customer Service to construct the electronics used in the Newport 12 and send it for my Deacon 12 string project.

Frankenguitar or Deacon 12 Re-issue. We'll see!

That's George's flight simulator at his home in Denton Texas. I've been in it flying. He's got his computer set up in it. Very cool and a lot of fun.

Ah, so THAT'S what that is . . .
I've seen that in the background of a couple of Geo's other pictures, and always wondered what that was . . . that's pretty cool.
Does that thing run Genigraphics?

As far as the guitar in the pic, the only word that comes to mind (to me) is "Jf*#@*gANGLE".
nice.
