My Slammer (Hamer) Pacer that my mom paid $150 for w/an amp, when I was 15.

The neck actually looks/feels better than the one on my MIM Strat! And the quality of the [Duncan Designed] pickups, and the controls is suprizingly top notch.

This guitar has a great tone, and I know this sounds crazy, but it has almost an LP vibe to it, especially through a Marshall stack.

I've been playing this guitar almost every day for the past 12 years, and it STILL sounds as good as it did when it eas new, not to mention it's completely stock! I've NEVER had one problem with it after all these years (knock on wood)!
