For Sale: Hamer Cruise Bass in Black Cherry Burst

USA made Hamer with the Gotoh top load + string through bridge, and parchment pearloid pickguard

Includes OHSC


Modded with a set of EMG Geezer Butler PJ pickups and Hipshot Ultra-lite cloverleaf tuners.

Precision pickup configured as a 'half-reversed P' as developed by Lee Sklar. The EA is mounted at the traditional spot, with the DG positioned closer to the fretboard. The PJ set is wired in series with independent volume controls for each pickup, plus tone. Being a PJ, I have found that series wiring produces fuller, better tone with little-to-no mid-scoop when running both pickups as compared to conventional parallel wiring.

$600 + shipping.

Excellent condition. 90's decade vintage, no major visible dings, but if you examine extremely close, there will be some hairline swirls and marks here and there. (The streaks and white specks you see in the gloss are track lights, windows, etc.) No smoke or other odor. The top volume hole was inadvertently drilled out, so that, and along with the Precision pickup mod is the reason the original 'swoop' pickguard was swapped out. OHSC has scratches and marks which is to be expected.

CONUS sales only. Local pickup okay as well.

Wow—Cool as hell!!! I've owned both 2Teks and Gotohs and prefer the Gotohs. My Hamer Gotoh is the only 4-string I've kept even though I only play 5ers. And the PJ mod seems like it would just slay. —if I was still buying 4-strings it would be mine. GLWTS

Could I get a ballpark weight? I know these are known to be all over the map, with some being much heavier than I'm willing to do.

Thanks.

8 plus a hair. The Cruise Basses with the 2Tek bridge are the ones known to be a bit heavier.
