Hamer Eclipse 12-string

There's a song on the upcoming ND album that calls for some jangle. I hate playing 12 strings normally but this one plays like butter. Tom

Back in the studio with No Doubt this week. Pictured here is my current tool box: two Hamers and three Fenders. Looking to get one of Grover Jackson's new GJ2 creations here next week. Might need a Gretsch too...

Hanging with Grover

I popped into Grover Jackson's workshop today to have a look at the new guitars he's building. Serious hand-built craftsmanship! These things look and play crazy nice.

Hamer Arctic White

circa 2009.

You can see the Korina grain through the finish, which is beginning to yellow nicely.

The bridge is called a "sustain block" and the pickups are chrome Duncan Fatcats, which I love. Ebony fingerboard.

Armstrong Plexi

Mine has a custom white pickguard. I played this on the No Doubt tour in '09. But only for one song every night because it's heavy! Plays nice though. Tom
