Hamer Phantom guitars
Thanks to Steve Matthes, Barry Duncan and to the Hamer Fan Club for helping with the following details of Glenn's Hamer guitars:

For the American leg of the DEFENDERS OF THE FAITH World Tour, Hamer Guitars issued a limited run consumer version of Glenn's A6 (six in-line headstock) Phantom guitar called the Phantom GT. This guitar featured a contoured body with double offset cutaways and a pick guard. The neck had 22-frets (24.75 inch scale), a rosewood fingerboard, dot inlays and was made of mahogany (changed to maple in 1985). Other appointments were a Kahler flat-mount 2300 C locking tremolo and a single Hamer Slammer pickup. The Phantom GT had a limited production run from 1984 to 1986. Glenn's personal models feature Duncan or EMG pickups.



Hamer GT Custom

For the TURBO/Fuel For Life tour in 1986, Hamer introduced a new non-production model called the GT Custom. Its black angular body loosely resembled a Gibson Explorer, causing it to be often mistakenly called a Scarab GT, though it is not a Scarab model at all. This guitar features a maple fretboard with black dot inlays, two Duncan and EMG humbucking pickups, a Kahler locking tremolo and a white stripe outlining the body shape.
