Frankly, right now I think Hamer is building better guitars than either PRS or Gibson. Some of the new Hamers blow me away. There is a Newport hanging at a store near me that has my name on it I'm afraid! LOL
just checked out hamer's site..

Hamer Guitars

the guitars they're cooking up look boiling hot!

but do they sound as great as they look?
