Hello there people from the internets! Up for sale is a 1999 Hamer Explorer Standard in Natural finish. This Korean made Hamer is a premium, budget-friendly tribute to one of rock’s most iconic body shapes. Built during what players consider the "golden era" of Korean guitar manufacturing, this model offered musicians a high-quality alternative to expensive American-made Gibson and Hamer USA Explorers. Unlike later budget iterations, the 1999 Korean Standard is celebrated for its exceptional build quality, featuring a solid set-neck construction, a striking "hockey-stick" headstock, and high-output Duncan Designed pickups, this guitar combines aggressive, classic-rock aesthetics with a fast, modern 14-inch fretboard radius, making it a collectible workhorse in the underground used guitar market.

As you can see in the photos and video, the guitar is excellent condition with almost no dings or heavy scratches showing a few micro picking scratches and some minor bit of corrosion in the metal parts (please check video and photos for a better perspective of the guitar's condition and please ask for more pictures and videos). The frets show basically no wear and have been crowned, levelled and polished to a mirror finish. The neck is straight and extremely smooth, very comfortable and easy to play and it has just been setup to my liking with 10-46 D'Addario EXL. There is no buzz and the truss rod works as it should. Pickups are the original Duncan Designed HB-101N and Duncan Designed HB-102B set. The electronics are all stock and work properly (no issue whatsoever with the electronics).

It will be professionally packed and shipped by carrier (UPS or DPD) in the Hardshell case pictured in the fotos. Please watch the close-up video for more details. I have tons of more photos so please send me a message if you desire to look at them. Sold as it is.

If there is any additional information that you might require, I’m happy to provide it to you, so send me a message. All serious offers will be considered. If you are a Portuguese customer local pickup is also an option. In the case of international delivery: import duties, taxes and customs are not included. Such charges, if any, are the buyer's responsibility. Have a good day!
