Oh yeah! I forgot about those short scale double cuts. The USA models are a little more expensive.

A little? Yeah, just ever so slightly. :)

But they are reasonable compared to Gibson's custom shop.

The owner of our local music store here has also been the Kaman rep for the territory. He's had some really nice Hamer Custom Shop guitars in his store from time to time, even though most of his electric guitar and bass stock is beginner level stuff. Since FMIC completed its purchase of Kaman on 12/31, I'll have to find out what changes are in store for him.

I expect there will be changes before it's all said and done, I hope it's for the better.

Cool one, is that a one piece top?

Here's my 8 string. I wanted the stadium logo on this one but I guess they were out of them.

Yes, one-piece top. What's a stadium logo?

That's the large size logo like the one on your 12 string.

That's what I assumed but you know what happens when you assume. Thanks!
