2005 Hamer - Monaco III Grand Ole Opry Anniversary - Shiraz Red

According to Hamer just 13 of these beautiful Grand Ole Opry 80th Anniversary Limited Edition Monaco III's were made to commemorate this rather auspicious occasion. I personally own & play a Monaco III and LOVE it. Hamer's Conn. shop's build quality is legendary and this Shiraz Red beauty is a fine example of their brilliance. These are quite special & "rare" and they sound great. Just check these impressive specs:

Original case in pretty good "sound" condition. There are some scuffs & some torn Tolex but it's all there. Includes Key, Truss rod wrench & Certificate of authenticity signed by the builders.

Condition- It's been played and has a fair amount of nicks- dings & scratches. Please see the photos. It's wasn't abused & looks really nice. I Plek'd it and hand polished the frets, which are in superb condition. This is a wonderful - GREAT instrument that honors the Opry's 80th Anniversary. You'll be proud to own it AND you'll love playing this rare Hamer.

Since the instrument is already here, and going to be setup by us anyway, we’ll do the PLEK service for a deeply discounted price of just $159.00. Included is hand polishing the frets and a full setup. This amazing service is normally $239.00 Our PLEK customers tell us they’re VERY pleased with the results and you will be also.
