Professional Scapegoat
Ok, please forgive any typo.. Im weeping..
I have to pay some bills and my other axes arent moving. So, here is my beloved Kramer Baretta. 87 model I believe. She is black with rare maple neck. I believe only like1 in 10 had maple. Anyhow, she is in great shape. Bluebook would rate it an 8. It has my fav Kramer logo and is killing me to sell.
She has no neck pocket cracks, no fretwear. maybe a hint,but its hard to tell. It has been in a case so much of its life,there are slight stains on the frets from strings on the first couple of frets.
Condition: ( I have not put ANY marks since Ive owned her) one little scuff on the headstock, NO neck pocket cracks, the top has almost no pick swirls!!, there are 3 little dings on the top that look like the end of the trem bar hit them. and one is by the trem tail from a tool, Im sure. And, on the top of the upper horn, both front and back, there is some rough scuffing that looks like they leaned the guitar against a cement block wall with some force.WHO would do this?? Anyhow, Ive included a pic and the pic looks Worse than it does in person. Its darker in person. (may even buff out with a buffer. Ive tried to hand wax it out). There is also a tiny spot of this roughness on upper edge of the body where the arm cut is..your arm covers when playing and you have to look to see it.. And just some usual scuff on the back.. Nothing notable and not bad..
Comes with the orig Kramer hard case. (all latches on and work) $700 shipped to the ConUS.

*** Two other important notes.. The pictures were taken before I got a correct backplate and black screws.
And the buyer can choose between the black/white Duncan 598 thats in it or the creme/black JBj that came stock.

Re: FS Kramer Baretta

Looks great!

How does it sound?

Sounds great! nice sustain, has a very full, chunky sound. Has OFR, so there is no loss of tone at the bridge.. The 598 is pretty cool.. And of course if you put the JB in, Classic metal all the way!

Neck has some girth to it. no scrawny shredstick here. And one cool point is the wood is nice and thick where the locking nut attaches.. I see so many guitars that are cracked there
 
Re: FS Kramer Baretta

I hear you. Hope you don't mind, but I posted a link at KF.

I'm sure someone is looking for a Vintage Kramer Baretta w/a Maple Board...someone always is where Vintage Kramers are concerned.

I'll gladly delete it if you like, just let me know.

Wow. That is beautiful. And will ya please turn the pickup around the way it's supposed to be? Barettas came with reverse zebra JBs. ;) It looks better too, IMHO. :)

Good luck with the sale.
