Graphic Finishes

The Orpheo I have is the most graphic I own currently.

[The Guitar]

My Lotus strat copy came with nail polish zebra stripes. Then removed them to get ghost zebra stripes.

Sadly they are not originals, but reissues. I first bought the polka dot, which was good enough that I sold an original one to get the Aztec. The Aztec is an original finish, but is supposed to have been a promotion-only thing. I have no idea how many were made, but there were definitely fewer than of any of the other graphic finishes.

OT, but did Kramer ever use the Nightswan body size for any other guitars?

In what capacity? The body shape was not used for anything else, but most of their later guitars are what you could call 7/8 sized, which is sort of akin to the Nightswan. I think the closest one would be the ProAxe, which was produced for a split second in 1990, and were supposedly made to replace the Nightswan and stop Kramer from having to send royalty cheques to Campbell. It even came with a neck humbucker!





I know that you like neck pickups on 22-fret guitars, and I think the closest to the Nightswan then would be one of the late-era Pacer Imperials. It would have Fender-style scale length, though.

Thank you for this info! I forgot about the Pro-Axe! It looks like a cool instrument!

I like that Pro-Axe with the H/S and the Seymour parallel-axis trembucker.

Oh here is one that Aceman needs for Hollywood shows!
