About This Listing

Up for sale is a beautiful and highly sought after 1997 Hamer Limited Edition Korina Vector in near mint condition and perfect working order. This is #17 out of 72 of a very limited run. We just gave this beast a pro set up with a set of 10-46 gauge strings so it plays amazingly with a straight neck, low action and accurate intonation. The original Seymour Duncan pickups (59 in the neck and JB in the bridge) sound exceptional do a wonderful job of capturing the tonal qualities of the Korina. And like all high quality Korina instruments, this one is also very resonant acoustically.

Cosmetically, this instrument is insanely clean and has been well taken care of over the years. That’s really an understatement as this axe looks unplayed. Seriously. There’s zero fret wear and no pick scratches on the pickguard. This is as close to NOS as it gets. That said, there’s a couple things worth pointing out. There are two minuscule dings. One is on the top just north of the input jack and another on the back just west of the strap button. We really had to go out of our way to find these and they’re barely visible. Lastly, on the bass side of the fingerboard (around fret 19) theres a small area of cloudiness in the binding. See pics for condition and please excuse any reflections.

Just to state the obvious, this is a very well made high quality instrument. In addition, it freakin‘ crushes in every way possible! This axe is really on point! Comes with the original hard shell case, case key and truss rod wrench. The guitar weighs 7lbs 13.6oz. The nut width is 1.698”. The neck thickness is .830” at the 1st fret and .895” at the 12th fret.
