Vai's 2nd Hamer Prototype

[whatshisname]

I found this on the Vai.com board, so I figured I'd post it here, for those of you who don't frequent it.

Boy am I glad that he went with Ibanez! That sucker is fugly! Not to mention the fact that it has a Kahler... I'd take a Lo-TRS II over a stinking Kahler!

I kinda like it......

Needs to be a different color, though.

Actually, I like don't mind the color. It's the body shape that seems so weird, to me. That, and that stinking KAHLER.

It looks really crappy to me.

This is SO made up, it's not even funny.
I can believe Joe Despagni maiming an existing Hamer guitar for Steve which eventualy ended up back with Hamer but them making this for Steve - phlleeesse.
If you look at his Jackson, Tom Anderson and Performance guitars at the time - they look way more conventional and normal to warant anything like this hideous thing being "made" by anyone else than Despagni.

I'd chalk this down to *unsubstantiated rumour* and forget about it.

Dex, why is it so hard to believe? Everyone knows that Vai had every guitar company under the sun courting him. There are probably a whole bunch of other prototypes out there, that we've never seen. Some of them might even be more hideous, than this one.

its just not for me.........
