E’s One-of-a-Kind Collectibles GUITAR INFO. · Vintage 1983 Kramer Pacer Imperial USA PATENT PENDING Guitar, “C” Plate, w/Seymour Duncan Pickups and OHSC · Made in USA (Serial No. C2201) – Assembled early ‘83 to mid ‘84 · Features an Original Floyd Rose and maple "Chicken Beak" headstock · Includes original tremolo arm and OHSC with Kramer Fork Headstock Style Logo · All factory original components; aside from the Seymour Duncan Pickups & Control Knobs · U.S. SELLER – All items are from my personal collection, well cared for and routinely serviced · See photos for further details (guitar shown is the exact guitar you will receive) CONDITION / SPECS If you are looking at this guitar you know this is the real deal, the infamous ‘80s guitar that redefined rock-n-roll, featuring one of the first “Original Floyd Rose” double locking tremolos, Eddie Van Halen being one of its biggest endorsers. These “Patent Pending” Kramer USA guitars are becoming harder to find as more collectors are recognizing their increasing value. Hands down this is a player’s guitar, it sounds amazing. It’s in fantastic working condition, however, it does show some wear on the transparent red finish but also keep in mind that this guitar is nearly 35 years old! The most notable blemishes on the finish are as follows: 1. Average wear around the edges of the “Chicken Beak” Headstock 2. Maple fingerboard is in really nice shape, nice patina and rolled edges – no sharp frets 3. A few very minor nicks on the back of the neck only one is down to the wood behind the 7th fret - does not impact playing 4. There are two finish cracks in the bottom neck pocket-not into the wood 5. The top finish does have a few chips down to the wood finish where it looks like somebody installed something on the front of the body – 9 in total (see photos) 6. Quite a few scratches are present on the front and back of body (see photos) 7. Small paint chip below the Floyd Rose Tremolo and one on tip of the bottom body hook 8. Overall, a really nice playing guitar with a few minor blemishes For full spec details, see below: Neck – Reverse Headstock · Material – Maple Quarter Sawn · Logo – KRAMER Pacer Series “Patent Pending” · Fingerboard – Maple · Back of Neck – Gloss Finish · Nut – R2 (Width = 1 5/8”) · Truss Rod – Adjustable Rod · Frets – 22 Jumbo Frets (first five frets have the most wear, overall plenty of life left…) · Inlays – Black Dots · Side Dot Markers – Black “Stick” Markers · Scale - 25 ½” Scale · Action – 5th fret (1/16”) 12th fret (3/32”) · Strings – 9-42 Gauge · Tuners – Original Schaller “Made in Germany” Body · Dexterity – Right Handed · Style – Trimmed Down Strat Style with Bolt on Neck · Wood – Maple · Finish – Transparent Red (Very Rare) · Hardware – Black / Chrome Bridge · Original Floyd Rose (Made in Germany) – Double Locking Tremolo · Includes Tremolo Arm Pickups NECK · Seymour Duncan SH-1n ’59 Humbucker Pickup (USA) Description: The '59 Model SH-1 humbucking pickup is Seymour Duncan's take on the classic Seth Lover PAF (Patent Applied For) humbucker found on the Gibson's iconic late-1950s Les Paul. Sound: Full and bright distorted tones with smooth sustain are available from this classic-style pickup. BRIDGE · Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB Humbucker Pickup (USA) Description: The JB Model SH-4 is one of Duncan's - and the world's - most popular pickups and provides the classic sound of a hot-rodded humbucker that we've all loved for the last 30 years. Sound: The SH-4 provides slammin' output while retaining singing highs, aggressive harmonics, and just the right blend of sustain and distortion. It easily goes from sweet warm tones to raw rock 'n' roll. Controls · 1 Volume (scratchy when doing full volume roll) · 2 Tone - Neck & Bridge Pickups (both work fine) · 3-Way Pickup Switch (works fine) Case · Original Hardshell Case with Kramer Fork Headstock Style Logo (Quite a bit of wear in the tolex covering along the edges, wood is solid in all areas, no cracks or breaks in the case and all latches, hinges and feet are intact) TERMS OF SALE / RETURNS Payment must be made within 48 hrs of purchasing product.
