silver sparkle finish? got any pics?

Yeah, will have to dig it up, but I know that somewhere I have a live shot of it in use.

Don't still have the guitar, as it was sacrificed on the altar of Hamer USA when I had a chance to buy a Hamer Special 5 or 6 years ago and needed to raise some cash. I sold two guitars (that Fernandes Native X and a very cool Yamaha AES500) to be able to get that Hamer.

The live shot must be on my work computer.

Looked like this but with a white pickguard:

Here's is the live shot of my Fernandes Native X that I was talking about:

The bassist in the pic, PJ, is now the guitarist for a local punk band called Billy Reese Peters.

They're actually pretty successful, much more so than Crash Pad (the band he was in with me) ever was. They have some records out on a small but well-established punk rock label, I think it is No Idea Records probably, if not then Fueld By Ramen. They've had national tours and played outside north America and such.

thats nasty..one of the guys in my band borrows stuff from me on occasion, and quite happily treats it like crap, kicking the power button on the front to switch it off etc. I'm like..dude thats my stuff, back off.

Re: don't lend important gear away
 
yeah any more i don't really lend stuff out unless it is something i don't really care about or don't really want anymore...but now i am thinking i might replace the tremelo that got broken with a floyd rose but i dunno yet
