Hamer XT Sunburst Archtop with Flame Maple Top
The Hamer XT Sunburst is a versatile double-cutaway that pays homage to the legendary boutique designs of the late '70s. Combining a classic tonewood foundation with modern playability, this guitar is a "workhorse" instrument with a premium aesthetic.

Why This Guitar Stands Out
The XT Sunburst is widely regarded for punching well above its weight class in terms of build quality. The mahogany-and-maple combination provides a thick, harmonically rich tone, while the double-cut body remains ergonomic for long sets. Finding one in perfect working order with a hard shell case makes it a "turn-key" solution for any gigging musician.
