Is this a legit copy?

[RobertB]

Never seen one of these. Hamer Slammer Impact Stingray Bass

That particular bass doesn't copy the 3 + 1 headstock, so I believe it may be ok.

Mimicry is the sincerest form of flattery...

 

[RocketRalf]

What about the body/pickguard style and name?

 

[T-bone]

I think they used the "ugly stick" to make that headstock.

tbone

Its is just part of doing business....the vile part

I'm old enough to remember Hamer quality. Those days are over.

 

[Basspro]

Your right...Hamer did make quality instruments at one time in the big hair days.

 

[strummer]

Your right...Hamer did make quality instruments at one time in the big hair days.

Hell yeah, made some nice 8-and 12-strings back in the days

 

[GHWelles]

What about the body/pickguard style and name?

Right, this is not a legitimate copy and I will have it off E-bay soon.

 

[RobertB]

Yeah, I remember when they were decent too.

 

[Big Poppa]

Real US made hamers are very nice instruments.....still THis is just putting the Hamer name on an import

 

[AtomicPunk]

This Hamer "Slammer" stuff is garbage. I wish they would get back to making the instruments they started out making. I had a early 80's Hamer doublecut guitar for a while and it was a great guitar.

 

[Zippydog]

"legit copy"...


Now that's funny!

It appears the the "Fakeray" has been removed.

 

[Road Pop]

I own several Hamer usa basses. FMIC bought Kaman wich owned Hamer. Hamer usa is built with great attention to detail. It saddens me to see the company logo on the imports, even more so because Hamer did it before Fender bought them. I do think Hamer usa is very nice quality. Jol D. isn't too fond of the imports.

BTW, I hadn't seen the fakeray before.

Yes it has
