True JOY to own & play, and experience! Wikipedia on SRV about his Hamilton. Main (also known as Hamilton or the “Couldn’t Stand the Weather” guitar) was a custom Fender Stratocaster-style guitar made for Vaughan by James Hamilton in Buffalo, NY. It was presented to Vaughan by James as a gift from Billy Gibbons on April 29, 1984. [11] This guitar features a two-piece maple body and a “neck-through body” design. It also originally had EMG preamped pickups, but Vaughan didn’t like the pickups in it. His next music video was about to be made, which was “Couldn’t Stand the Weather”, and didn’t want to get Number One wet during filming, so he used the Hamiltone for filming. The EMG pickups and Gibson style amber top hat knobs were changed in June 1984. Its fingerboard is ebony with a mother-of-pearl inlay that read “Stevie Ray Vaughan”. The guitar was originally set to be made for Stevie in 1979, but the plan was dropped when Vaughan started using his middle name “Ray”, as he was known as “Stevie Vaughan” at the time.
