F Bass Hammertone OC-12 12-String Manditar
Summary: The Hammertone series of guitars, named after the town in Canada, where they are made, “The Hammer” or Hamilton, Ontario, is a 12-string electric guitar/mandolin hybrid. These little gems produce lovely shimmering chime, much like a traditional mandolin, but offer the familiarity of a 12-string guitar—simply tuned up an octave.
Body: Solid, single cutaway, finished in a satin finish.
Neck: Maple with a Rosewood fingerboard, 15.75” scale length, 1 7/8” nut width, pearl dot inlays.
Pickups/Hardware: Two telecaster neck style single coil pickups, master volume/master tone controls/3-way pickup selector, vintage style tuning keys, white single ply pickguard, adjustable truss rod wheel, 6-saddle 12-string bridge (top load/through the body).
Cosmetics: There are a few very small dings in the body and being a satin finish, you can see where there are very light surface scratches. The body has worn to an almost gloss like finish under the player’s arm would be. Overall, this instrument is in great shape and the tuning stability is incredible and noticeable.
Playability: Our in-house guitar tech has inspected, setup, and restrung this instrument with a new set of strings. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable. The frets are in great shape with no major grooves or divots from use and it plays beautifully up and down the fretboard with no dead spots or choking out.
Weight: 6.01 lbs.
Case: This instrument ships in the original bag, professionally packaged, and fully insured.
