Episode description

Paul Hamer and Jol Dantzig were pioneers of what we know today as the boutique, or custom, guitar phenomenon. Many a touring band went to Hamer to get something that could not be had anywhere else. One such custom instrument is the Virtuoso. It boasted 36 frets and a scalloped fingerboard. Each guitar had a unique finish; no two are alike. We decided to take one for a spin, and see if we would still have fingers after trying to play that high up on a neck. Enjoy! Like the show?
