NGD: Kramer Stagemaster

[jchrisf]

I've seen some pretty blowout deals on the current production models. Like $699.

Where? That's awesome

Yeah, I never had any Kramers until just a few years ago, oddly enough. Now I have those two, and a Sambora mutt that´s one of the KRS models for the japanese market but fitted with the neck and Floyd system from some American-series guitar of the same vintage.

My first shred guitars were Kramers. Three Pacers, the first I added the Floyd myself with literally zero knowledge of how to do it lol. No clue about spacing or anything but I did it, had to route out the rear, filed down the bone nut for the locking nut, crazy to think about now but it worked lol.

My second Kramer had one of the best necks on guitar I've ever owned. Third Pacer was junk, traded two Pacers plus cash on an ESP Mirage Custom right when ESP came out. Nobody knew who ESP was at the time but I was all about ESP for the next decade plus.

Yeah, I can´t remember exactly what those standard Duncan singlecoils are (maybe the Alnico II Pro) but they´re very nice, and like I mentioned earlier the JB gets a whole different vibe in parallel. Never tried it like that, but for someone like me who gravitates a bit toward bridge singlecoils as well it absolutely splits the difference in a cool way.
