Vintage Hamer Scepter in Lightning Bolt Day Glo Graphic finish made in 1987 with Original Hard Shell Case. This guitar features a solid mahogany body, maple neck and ebony fingerboard with a color matched headstock. Equipped with an EMG 85 in the neck position and an EMG 81 in the bridge position. Controlled by 1 volume pot, 1 tone pot and a 3-way toggle switch. The 24.75" scale length neck has mother of pearl boomerang inlays and white side markers with 24 jumbo frets on a 12" radius with a medium C profile. The hardware is comprised of black Hamer sealed die-cast tuning machines with cloche heads, a Floyd Rose Locking nut, a Floyd Rose Surface Mounted Original Double Locking Tremolo bridge and black knurled dome knobs.

This guitar is in overall very good condition. It was custom built for Gerald Guzman and has his name on the headstock. It has several dents and dings on the headstock and body that a previous owner tried to color match and seal. The neck and body show finish checking and have light surface marks. There is a small ding on the back of the neck around the 2nd fret. The back of the body has several small dents, dimples and belt rash. (See Pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 10-46 strings. Includes Original Hard Shell Case.
