The Hamer USA Artist Custom is a semi-hollow double-cutaway electric built around Hamer\u2019s carved-top construction, combining a mahogany body with a figured maple top and a single f-hole. This 1998 example features a fabulously figured flame maple top in a sunburst finish with gold hardware, an option at the time.<\/p>\n
The Artist Custom was one of the higher-spec models in Hamer\u2019s USA range during this period. Compared with the more simply appointed Artist, the Custom features body and fingerboard binding, mother-of-pearl crown inlays and upgraded cosmetic appointments. Its construction combines a chambered mahogany body with a carved maple top, giving it a different structure and response from both a fully solid guitar and a traditional fully hollow instrument.<\/p>\n
The set mahogany neck uses Hamer\u2019s 24 3\/4″ scale length and a rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets. The neck has the rounded vintage-style profile associated with Hamer USA instruments from this period. The bound fingerboard, crown inlays and bound body give the Artist Custom a distinctly upscale appearance without departing far from Hamer\u2019s established double-cut design.<\/p>\n
Electronics are two Seymour Duncan Seth Lover humbuckers controlled by individual volume controls, a master tone control and a three-way pickup selector. Hardware includes a Tune-o-matic style bridge, stop tailpiece and Schaller tuners.<\/p>\n
This guitar has standard playwear for its age, with the frets approximately 95%. Weight is 3900g. Includes original case.\u00a0This is a super rare 90s US Hamer that ticks all the boxes for a super refined, high end instrument.<\/p>\n
