Roadhouse USA:
2005 Hamer USA Monaco 4-String Bass Guitar ’59 Burst Flame Top W/OHSC
Serial #554304
This is the 4th bass of a really nice Hamer collection that we recently purchased.
I don’t believe I have ever had a Monaco bass in, so this is a first.
This one is a show stopper.
The flame top on this one is killer. Its a carved top, of course, so it really shows and presents nicely.
The neck is great and the frets superb.
Excellent condition, nary a mark on it. I’m sure you can find a pick scratch or two if you hold it up to your face, but take a look at the pics. They don’t lie!
Comes as pictured with original form-fit Hamer hard case.
If you are a Hamer collector, you won’t find one of these again any time soon.
