1994 USA Hamer Special FM-LE Amber Finish w/ JM Rolph Pickups

Here we have a special model of a mid-90s USA Built Hamer. This is part of a special run built for Japan only called, I believe, the Special FM-LE. It is essentially a Special FM with body binding (the normal Special FM is unbound).

This particular guitar has a nice thick quilt maple cap over a 1-piece mahogany body. The neck is also mahogany with an unbound rosewood fingerboard. The frets are in great shape with only the tiniest of wear. The neck is a nice vintage medium C shape and the guitar plays nice up and down the neck.

This guitar originally came to me with a set of Duncan pickups, a 59 in the neck and a Custom in the bridge. However, the neck pickup had an issue and needed a rewind repair. While waiting, I dropped in a pair of JM Rolph pickups that I had. These pickups are a nice match to this guitar and I saw no reason to put the original pickups back in. The original pickups (including the repaired neck pickup) will be included.

The neck width is 1 11/16" at the nut and 2 1/16" at the 12th fret. The neck depth is 13/16" at the nut and 15"16" at the 12th fret.

The guitar is in very good condition. There is a small ding through the finish on the corner near the bottom tone knob and a small indent close by (see pics).

The original hard shell case is included
