All user reviews for the Hamer Centaura USA

I bought this guitar on E-Bay(yea lol) for 350 bucks. Its a USA and in unbelievable awesome shape so yea i got a very good deal.

I liked basically everything about this guitar. From the Floyd rose trem and lockin nut, the guitar stayed in tune perfectly for a very long time. The dimarzio humbucker and the 2 stacked humbuckers sounded incredible for crunching out the tones.

The only dislike about the thing was the way the amp jack was inserted. They are slanted on the butt which can get a pain very quick and very often, but other than that all systems were go.

The guitar had a nice straight neck with perfect frets. The pickups were a dimarzio humbucker at the bridge and 2 dimarzio stacked humbuckers with coil taps. The guitar has to be solid being i bought it when it was 10 years old and it looks almost mint with no defects.

Overall this guitar rocks. If you want a Great USA made guitar for a great price try to check out this. Ebay is notorius for scams though -check out ed roman's talk about that on worldclassguitars.com- so i wouldn't recommend going there although i did get a heck of a deal. I would rate this guitar as a 4.7 being the butt jack but ill round it off.

UTILIZATION

Unde the handle is more comfortable that I've played!
Access to acute is simply terrible! (Useful for plans shred) The agreement is floyd correct!
The guitar is very light which is really valuable when you are on stage (finally back pain!)

SOUNDS

This is a guitar to cut hard!
However with the configuration of microphones you get to get the sound you want: blues, rock, hard, metal!
With two microphones get together even a simple sound to Stevie Ray Vaughn!
The humbucker sends an awesome fish (ideal for solos!)
I play a fender bassman 59 'with a chain of effects (reverb holy grail, disto maxon rod 881, overdrive Jekyll & Hyde) and I manage to get his ideal for what I play (rock / hard rock)
However, lack of warmth in the sound clear.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years and I can not get enough! It's a real pleasure to play with this guitare.Si I had to do this choice I would not hesitate one second!
