Hamm's beer guitar build

Done!
Well, except for the gold input jack coming by slow boat from China. It was really fun to see this goofy idea come to fruition.

Dude! This is is pretty awesome! :)
 
Finally got the eBay "Free 2-4 Day Shipping" gold jack plate after 10 days, so that completes the build. Plays and sounds great, no buzzes, hangs right.
I emailed the Hamm's collector club and the Hamm's Museum today to see if anyone bites.

I gotta say...I kinda want that guitar. Not that I need any more than I already have and could build pretty much anything else I wanted. That thing is just goofy enough in concept and unique enough (and looks to be quite nicely executed, as well) that the cool factor is very, very high, indeed. :D

Thanks. If I haven't heard from the Hamm's community in a reasonable amount of time, it will be going on eBay, Craigslist, reverb.com.

If you take a few pics, I'll show it around. I have an acquaintance who runs a funky bar/venue and it's just the sort of thing he'd have hanging on the wall. And if it plays pretty well, it would probably get used. :)
 
Here are the photos I'll be showing to the Hamm's groups if & when they reply to my emails; you can drag & drop these on your desktop. FYI, I'm looking for offers in the $600-$700 range. It's a custom-built guitar that plays & sounds great.

It also appears to be well-made with quality components. Nice workmanship there.
 
I'd not begrudge that price, by any means. :)
My favorite part is the damn bear! I remember watching those commercials featureing the Hamm's Bear when I was a kid.
