From The Hammett Guitar Co. -

Introducing The Hammett H620 Nazaré [na za ray] which is my first thin-line solid-body electric guitar model. Any feelings of familiarity towards the double cutaway shape are thrown by the addition of a ‘bite’ from the upper waist, accented appropriately by the scythe headstock profile the combination of which creates a beast that although is familiar to wield, wildly different to tame. The body contours are sculpted with the great oceanic waves of the Atlantic sea for inspiration and rolling 60’s psychedelic surf tones at its soul. Clearly a distant relation of the 60’s antipodean Maton Fyrbyrd electric guitar range and outrageous enough to compete with Teisco’s of the same era.

The model shown is a Reverse Nazaré (regular headstock) and is available as standard.

Each model is unique and varies. Hand-crafted in the UK -
