Hot or Not? Hamer Virtuoso

[Jbird]

I'd love to have one of these

"Paul Hamer designed this guitar in 1986, aptly naming it after the type of musician who would covet such an instrument. The first Virtuoso was completed in January, 1987. We continued to build Virtuosos on a most limited basis into 1989."

I could get into a guitar with only a bridge single coil.

But I'm not sure at what point "virtuoso" came to mean, "Plays melodies only dogs can hear."

 

[Coralkong]

Yep....and no.

Not hot. Fucking stupid.

When 27 frets just won't cut it, eh?

Hello, Hamer Warranty Department? Yeah, my intonation is a bit sharp at the 47th fret.

 

[Guitar Heel]

Love Hamers. Hate this.

 

[Coralkong]

How many frets does that thing actually have?
37?

Fucking ridiculous.

It looks like a Cyclops.

Looks like a botched revival of the Dano Longhorn.

I have no business congregating with that instrument.

That guitar is like absolute power: nobody who wants it should ever be allowed to have it.

[LeftyTom]

The body is too wide, plus that neck leaves me wanting.

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

Looks like a botched revival of the Dano Longhorn.

 

[Guitar Heel]

Despite my hatred for this guitar, I would totally rock this finish on something else.

For the record, I'd like mine to have a hum bucker

I bet Uli Jon Roth would rock one
