Here is the last of the Hamer Korina Vs that came in recently. This one is a 2004 and is in beautifully clean condition like the others. The neck has some really nice figuring, something you don't see a lot with this African Limba wood. This one has the chunkiest neck of the bunch. Check the measurements in the STATS section.

These lightweight, resonant Vs are some of the nicest contemporary guitars I've had my hands on recently. The build quality, woods and overall fit and finish are impeccable.  

This example does not include a certificate of authenticity or any paperwork in the original case. There is perhaps one change - the tuneomatic bridge is not the same Schaller looking part that is present on the others. See the pictures for reference. Everything else on the guitar is original and undisturbed - no solder joints changed, no repairs or issues whatsoever.

There are only the lightest signs of handling and some light tarnishing on the gold hardware. The frets show only a small amount of use.

The fretboards on several of the Hamers we received in this batch were Brazilian, noted on the COA. This one does have very similar appears similar to those with Brazilian boards, but I can't be sure.
