It's a Korean made version. I have a blue one with HB's and it's a decent guitar all things considered. There are many, many worse guitars out there that you will pay more for. It wasn't my cup of tea, but it really is a fine instrument.

Is it that cheap?? I'm 99% sure it's a Korean with DESIGNED pickups, not real Duncans. Lots of Korean guitars to be had in that pricerange, right?? At least over where you are, not here, lol

Actually that is a newer Chinese made one I bet. THe XT line in the 2005 imports and IIRC are chinese. I bet it is a semi decent guitar for the bucks. Some of the Korean import Hamers are fantastic. I have two.

Yeah, the korean Hamer Slammer (NOT Slammer by Hamer) series which was made in mid 90's is a good buy. I don't know about that particular Hamer though

I had a Hamer Echotone for a while...in red with duncan designed pickups..the pickups were the weak point in that mix but man what a fine instrument...played well, held tune, didn't break strings...and was made with 100% real maple..not like a maple top and some other wood for the back and sides, but real maple throughout....man I want another one real bad, but can't spare that kind of cash right now...someday...I wish I had never gotten rid of it..but through trades that guitar eventually got me my Mesa/Boogie, so I'm not complaining

I don't like it when sellers don't fully disclose the origin of a guitar, especially when the same name is on the head stock on US and foreign made models. AND it directly affects the value of the guitar.

I read through the ad twice, and didn't see any disclosure, even though you can tell by the price that it must be foreign. The only indications I saw were that it didn't say quot;Hamer USAquot; on the head stock, and the back of the headstock has a small quot;made in -----quot; label that' illegible.

anyway, I'd guess it's Korean, but the fact is, the seller has made the BUYER responsible for finding out.
