maxoges Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) I got a Hamer Cruise] 5 off ebay. I replaced the crappy after marked Artec pickups the previus owner put in it with stacked Bartolinis and put new pots as well. Pretty sweet bass!

RhysP Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 They are fantastic basses, superb quality. I love Hamer USA stuff, I've had a few Hamer guitars & they've all been superb. I see yours has got the 2TEK bridge as well. Surprised the previous owner replaced the pickups, the bass would have originally come with either EMGs or Seymour Duncans. Nice bass! Quote
PlungerModerno Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Cool bass - I like the embedded bridge idea - high mass without the expense of a good trem system. Quote
