Very nice job! If I was any good at the electric axe, I'd want one, too...

(been playing (sort of) for around 40 years and I still s*ck at it)...

Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous! :)

Is there a website? Google gives me:
Your search - "Hammertone Enterprises" - did not match any documents.
Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_13

Who does your faceplates?

Cheers!

Shannon? Why dosen't Google find this stuff?

No there is not a website yet, I just got a Mac a couple of weeks ago and haven't gotten around to figuring out iWhateveritscalled to make one.

I got this silkscreened by a local printed circuit board maker with whom I have been dealing since ~1985. I am thrilled with this one.

BTW thanks for the good words!

It'll get cached eventually. EG, try Googling "Hammertone Sixpac".

Now THAT is point to point wiring - a term that gets used a a lot but rarely in the correct sense. Well done indeed!

I was trying to explain to my roommate the other day what point to point was and just ran up to show him this beautiful example.
It looks amazing, nice work!

WOW, that is a fabulous, clean design. Would love to hear the tones that can be found within.

Crappy player here with more money than talent - I could only have $5 and that would still be a true statement - so I am always excited to see new, well crafted gear.

Where did you get those nifty old-school communication knobs? I had a few of them kicking around in my junk box (pulled from old gear somewhere), but I always assumed they are long out of production.

I bought 75 NOS at a ham radio swap meet a couple of years ago. They are still in production and I have seen them for sale on the internet but have been unable to find them again. Perhaps someone here more clever than I am with the search engine can find them.
