As you may or may not know, I recently brought in a collection of Flying Vs - everything from Epiphone to Gibson to several of these Hamers.  The Hamer Vs are the best of them all, by far.

This guitar is in mint condition with the exception only of some tarnish on the hardware.  It is 100% original and includes the original case.  The original certificate of authenticity is not included and was unfortunately lost prior to our purchase of the guitar.  The original owner's manual and hang tag are in the original case, both showing the model and serial numbers.   

The guitar plays effortlessly, and it weighs a mere 7lb 9.9oz.  The neck is a sublime, chunky C - not too big/not too small.  

The wood quality is amazing, with incredible gran on both the body and the fretboard.  A couple of the other Hamers I have are documented to have Brazilian Rosewood fretboards.  This one does not have the certificate to verify, but it does appear to be Brazilian, and it even has a little flame to it!  The neck joint is impeccable, and the fit and finish is as well.

This is clearly an investment piece, though I wouldn't blame anyone for playing it because it is completely addictive to play. 

If you're looking at this you know that Hamer nailed these 1958 style Flying V replicas.  I had never laid my hands on one, and now I see why they have the following that they have!
