I had a 59 Trembucker set aside for this one, but the stock pup sounds pretty bada$$ so it might stay. Time will tell....

Is that one of those musicyo ones? That 1984 seems like amazing value for money.

Thanks, Mike. I'm usually not one for graphic type guitars, but this one looks great. And yes, Pierre, it's the one from MusicYo. I got it used for about $150 less than new and the guitar and case are 99.99% mint.

Re: Got my new Kramer today

man i want one of those Music Yo 1984's!!!! But the exchange rate and duty tax kills us Canadians when buying from the states.... I've been holding out to see if i can find an old but good American style 80's Baretta and their is never any Kramers around for sale...... In the last 10 years i've seen one Baretta, one Focus, one Striker, and one late 80's American Kramer-(some say they were not really American made by 89 or so) 10 years ago i past on a red, rosewood board Kramer Baretta.... Looked just like the one Sammy Hager uses in the Live Without A Net VH dvd.....Must of been a real 1984! Nonangles headstock and i past on it !!!! It was only $350 Canadian! But back then everyone wanted to get rid of Kramers.....

Where do ya live so I can come up there and kick you for passing on it...LOL LOL.

By late '86 the bodies and necks where made by ESP but were assembled in the NJ factory. Gotta be careful though when hunting. Some people will redo a Focus and pass it off as a USA Baretta. The two are very similar and can easily be confused by the untrained eye. Some will even make part mutts come across as genuine.

I thought the 1984 reissues had a duncan in there anyway? Anyways, it looks cool, go play some EVH now!

Just keep lookin'. I passed up on a couple before I got mine. Mainly because I didn't like the graphics of them. At the time I got mine (mid 1990's) there was a buttload of late 80's Baretta's available.

Nah, they have a custom would Gibson USA Pickup (84T) I think. Sounds pretty good....

Re: Got my new Kramer today

Congrats!...right now that and a Hamer Diablo are the only two Floyd Rose equipped/bolt on neck guitars I'm interested in. I've been back and forth on buying that 1984 sev times.

Also yup Gibby pup...about 16K, IIRC! People say they sound really nice. a Guy over on HC posted some clips one time and I thought it was a nice sounding pup!
