This USA-made Hamer was produced for distribution in Japan via a partnership with the Kaman Music Corporation, featuring a Seymour Duncan HSS pickup complement, Floyd Rose-licensed Schaller tremolo, and gloss Iridescent swirl finish.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWeighing 7lbs 5oz, tonewoods included a swamp ash body, maple neck, and pau ferro fretboard. The Seymour Duncan pickups include a pair of SSL-1 single coils and a JB (TB-4) Trembucker at the bridge. The JB Trembucker is Seymour Duncan’s most popular pickup and the original hot-rodded humbucker; this high-power pickup delivers full, powerful lows, crisp and detailed highs, and an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords and translates to a singing, vocal-like quality for melodic playing. The pair of SSL-1 single coils deliver classic Strat-style sparkle and spank. Additionally, the two-way “Thick Switch” mini-toggle engages an additional tone cap, adding a touch more heft to the signal for particularly ripping gain. This Centura has been professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Medium C, measuring .860” 1st fret, .905” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Pau Ferro, 24-fret, 12” radius, offset dot inlays\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 1\/2”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1.650” (42mm), locking\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Hamer-stamped minis\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: 4-prefix\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Swamp ash\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickups: Seymour Duncan SSL-1 single coil x2, TB-4 JB Trembucker wound by “Queen of the Custom Shop” Maricela Juarez (identified via “J” stamp on baseplate sticker)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Controls: Volume, Tone, Five-way pickup selector, “Thick Switch” mini toggle\u003cbr\u003e\n-Harness: CTS pots date to 1993\u003cbr\u003e\n-Hardware: Hamer-branded, Schaller-built Floyd Rose-licensed tremolo, dome-top knurled knobs\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe gloss Iridescent finish has a dynamic swirl that shifts color when viewed from different angles, and there are just a scant few faint scratches in the clear coat on the body.
