Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Historic 1983 Baretta' profile is generally thinner and flatter than some later Kramer necks, offering a comfortable, shred-friendly feel.
It's a standard Floyd Rose, so it requires some familiarity with the system, but the locking nut simplifies string changes compared to vintage tremolos.
The maple body and Duncan ’59 pickup create a brighter, more aggressive tone than many alder-bodied ST-style guitars, emphasizing high-end clarity and sustain.
