Not sure about the guitar, but Michael Wagner has a thread over at Gearslutz that details the recording (including guitars I believe). Might want to check it out.

They always played Hamer guitars as far as I know.

This is the only one of Hamer's website that fits your description, the Special Korina Jr. :

wasnt it a les paul Jr?

I swear i read an article back in the day that they played a Jr. Maybe they recorded with a Les Paul Jr ?

I think one of them had an LP Jr with a custom-made neck from a smaller builder, Spector, I think.

That's right. Scotty Hill played the Hamers and Dave Sabo played Les paul Jrs. All of a sudden my high school years are all coming back to me now

You talking about this one? You are all wrong if you are.

Judging by the look on the engineer's face, that must be the most surprising sounding guitar he's ever heard.

Snake Sabo played an Ibanez Iceman as well.

Dug from the crypt like noobs do.

lol why?

 

[louthedog]

Well I dug it up to help clear up the fact they used
Custom built Spectors. I have two, one being Joe Perrys, the other was Hofschneider's the builder himselfs own axe, Chris built them all in Kramers Kustom shop.
