Slammer by Hamer WG1-TB Transparent Blue Electric Guitar

 

Early/mid-2000s solid-body electric with twin humbuckers, maple fingerboard, chrome tremolo and Transparent Blue faux-quilt finish

The Slammer by Hamer WG1 is a solid-body electric guitar from Hamer's entry-level Slammer line, combining an asymmetric double-cutaway body with a maple neck and fingerboard, dual humbuckers and a traditional chrome tremolo bridge.

This example is finished in Transparent Blue (TB) with yellow edge binding and a subtle faux-quilt appearance beneath the finish. Its compact body shape, 22-fret maple fingerboard and dual-humbucker configuration make it suitable for rock, alternative, blues and general electric-guitar use.

 

Condition:

Good overall pre-owned condition with visible cosmetic wear from normal use.

The guitar plays well. The neck appears straight visually with no obvious cracks, breaks or structural damage, and the frets remain in good usable condition. The bridge, tuning machines, pickups and control knobs are all in very good physical condition.

The Transparent Blue body has scratches, scuffs and finish chips, primarily around the pickup areas, selector-switch area and upper-right portion of the body. There is also a small smooth previously repaired/filled area in the body finish. It is flush with the surrounding surface and does not present as an open or active crack.

The maple neck and fingerboard show normal handling wear, including a smooth worn/discoloured area near the back of the neck heel. No significant structural issue is visible.

The pickup selector switch is not functioning correctly in Position 1 / bridge position and produces no sound in that position. The guitar otherwise plays and the remaining tested electronics operate.

The rear tremolo spring-cavity cover and tremolo arm are missing. Please review the detailed photos for exact cosmetic condition.
