Pickups in Hamer Artist Ultimate

Re: Pickups in Hamer Artist Ultimate

Hamer was using Seth Lovers in some of there special edition models, but I think I remember the Ultiimate as having Antiquities. I thought the website would have mentioned that, but I guess not. Beautiful guitar.

Re: Pickups in Hamer Artist Ultimate

The Artist Ultimate ued pickups designed specifically for that guitar and only available in that guitar. They were not for sale to the public. There was also another version dubbed "SLU" (Slightly Less Ultimate) the people could get. I have no idea how much or what the specs were, though. I would love to hear some more info on these as well.

This is some info on the Ultimates someone got with the guitar.

The
magnets are alnico v bar magnets with nickel silver bottom
plate, nickel plated studs, wood spacer and cloth braided
single conductor hookup wire. The pick up covers are made
from a special grade of nickel silver commonly called German
silver. The covers adjustable pole pieces and ferrous studs
are plated with 24 karat "hard gold". The specs on mine are
bridge: 8.52k gauss 20 neck 7.15k gauss 20. they are all
individually hand done but I'm sure the specs are relatively
close.

Anyone?

I've heard I can get a set of the SLU's from one of the top guys at Hamer. I'm wondering if this is the only place.
