Figured I'd put this in it's own thread since the "Claw One Piece Mahogany Tele" thread just doesn't apply to this project anymore!

Here's a "Mock Up" of what I'm actually going to put together!

The "SRV" is just wrong on a guitar with a Floyd and a pointy headstock :laugh2:

Otherwise, it looks like a fun and interesting twist on a shredstick for sure.

I like the way it looks a lot, but there sure are a lot of contradictions there for one guitar. That is a killer neck that screams for humbuckers and hard rock tone. But again, I really do like it.

Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

I like everything but the SRV on the guard, other than that it looks great!
 
Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

Thanks for the kind words. I know the "SRV" Pickguard throws some people off, but I am a big SRV Fan and just decided to take the best parts I could get and put this thing together...so...it is def a "contraditions of styles"...but damn...it looks hot and it's going to play equally as "hot".
 
Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

I for one - completely dig it! Who has that Steve Jones mod-rpro made from an ESP EC-1000. Same deal.

I will say this. If you are gonna go there, SRV it as much as you can. Strap, Pups, maybe some aging...

I dig it.
 
Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

That looks ridiculous. And awesome. Or awesomely ridiculous. No wait, reverse that last one.
 
Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

Kinda reminds me of XSSIVE's relic axe, and that's one heck of an axe!!!

If you decide against the SRV guard then do use a similar black guard cause it looks wicked!!!
 
Re: Kramer Claw Tobacco Burst SRV Deluxe

Keep the SRV!!!! It's like his secret strat...the one he never talked about and double tapped on while trying to sound like EVH...
