This is my BLACK HOLE (Kramer Custom I)(MADE JAPAN)
This is a Custom NOS MONSTER!!! guitar , putted together in the USA for a reputed custom guitar NOS shop.
If you are looking for an aggressive fat tone for fusion -Jazz and speed prog-metal ,this guitar wont disappointed you !!!
These necks are nearly impossible to find that's why i was happy to buy a lefty one when i found the opportunity and
cost me a little fortune.
(NOS means new old stock.)

You won't find this type of guitars in a ordinary commercial music shop , you will pay easy 3000 pounds for some expensive brands who now are selling guitar with Floyd Rose FR1000 series made in Korea , over seas woods (American wood treat and cut in China send back to the USA for assembling after traveling for many months on the humid sea), with Seymour Duncan designed (made in china)they are budget pickup and even they can handle the distortion , is not all about distortion in a PU sound.
This was a little orientation to explain why i moved on from commercial guitar Brands.

(To build a guitar like this one , you need some serious money ...)
The neck is a lefty Kramer Pacer Custom II American( just a super tiny piece of varnish missing on the headstock) , for those who knows the 80s Kramer will know that the neck is really amazing made by ESP Japan and the body is a PACER CUSTOM I as well in solid medium weight Alder wood.The truss rod cover said Custom II, we couldn't find a vintage Custom II cover when we put this beast together but if you keep searching you will find the correct one, i just don't care, im not a collector i'm a pro musician that is why i change the Schallers for Dimarzio, Sperzels and i put an original Floyd Rose instead, all of this upgrades are pretty new.I was planning to use this guitar for touring but it became to precious for me and i keep it on my studio so it is in a top condition , not one chip or serious scratch.CST 500k volume pot.WD Big Brass knob(black) with massage rubber(joke system but very cool)Brand new SPERZEL USA  Locking tuners .Schaller Sure Claw System NOS made in Germany(to avoid open the trem plate to set top the springs and Trem level)Dimarzio Super switch > neck>Middle (split neck and bridge together) > BridgePU superswitch 3 ways, Dimarzio J. Petrucci wiring HSHVol bleed cap .oo2>100k(erire y5p)Brand new Original floyd rose made in Germany , including whammy bar.Original 80s Kramer Neptune NJ neck plate(NOS) NEW PU Dimarzio Double whammy (bridge)NEW PU Dimarzio Pro- Track (neck)NEW Machine heads Sperzel locking system.Schaller strap holder buttonOriginal Neptune NJ factory Kramer neck plate.(NOS)NEW Big Block Floyd Rose Upgrade in old brass for more powerful tone and sustain.Easy action , your fingers play like butter on this baby.This guitar never move from my recording studio smoke freeThe original mini switch holes were closed with acrylic paste (black) The paint job is the original factory one and middle pick up cavity hole has been filled in and decorated by a Top abstract artist using the best combination of paint to respect the breathing of the wood and the tonal and sustain properties .Something i would like to say about this baby it is about the massive BIG sound and deep bass on the bridge combine with the mid treble characteristic of the double whammy with something more attractive, the PRO-TRACK in the neck position do perfectly the job as a perfect match ,very intense and DEEP sound for a middle-light weight guitar , the tonal properties are impossible to calculate but in my opinion this guitar is for someone who wants to sound BIG but with descent fat tone.(at the middle position  are the two pu splits and put together at the middle position for a fat single coil sound. 
For those who keep asking me why i'm selling my custom guitars??
Two answers
1) i invested a fortune on a vintage Classical Di Giorgio 1964 and i need to recover myself from the expenses.(im an electric guitar player but i used to be a classical 30 years ago and now on my 50s im getting back to classic.
2)I don't need a floyd on my guitars anymore, i stop using picks 2 years a go and im using tapping techniques and others to replace the floyd .
Wishing my answers are enough for you.
