Kramer Baretta II Monsters of Rock. One of the coolest pieces of 1980s guitar nostalgia you can ask for: this is a Kramer Baretta II as part of the rare run (about 50 pieces made) to promote the Monsters of Rock 1988 Tour which saw Van Halen promoting the OU812 record, alongside other Rock giants like Metallica, Dokken, Scorpions and Kingdome Come. The Baretta II model was to be more of a competitive market introduction to compete with Charvel/Jackson. Additionally, it is thought that Kramer switched the headstock design to the pointy variety in order to make themselves “More Jackson-like”. It is ironic that, Kramer had built its reputation based on a banana or hockey-stick headstock design, and then changed their identify to be something they were far from being. Many customers were upset with this change, and requested banana headstocks during this era. To this day, the banana/pointy dividing line among collectors seems to be a way of labeling themselves as found of one era or the other. The Baretta II body consisted of the same wood types as the original Baretta, maple or poplar. The original II’s feature a soloist that are similar to today’s ESP Kamikazi models. These bodies ran across the Kramer product line into the Pacer models, and are easily distinguished from later “Dinky Soloist” bodies that will be discussed farther down in this page. To see more on Kramer bodies in detail. Hardware and electronics wise, the guitars were essentially the same as the original Baretta design with minor exceptions.. The Baretta II with Large Soloist Body lasted well into 1987, and have been seen with not only standard block logos with the American Script, but also with the newer Pyramid logo that surfaced in early 1987. These are inter-mixed with the second run of Baretta II’s with the Smaller “Dinky” Soloist shape which will be discussed in the next section. The Baretta II Large Soloist body stopped sometime within the Late E plate serial numbers. Any large body thats seen in the F plates should be questioned, but not necessarily written off as a “mutt”. Seymour Duncan B 6. Launched in 1980, the Duncan Distortion is our original high output humbucker. We use a massive ceramic magnet and hot coil windings to deliver full-bodied rock and metal tones with powerful upper mids for extra cut and grind. Its great for hard-hitting, crunchy rhythms, and the lead tones scream with wild harmonics. It also remains tight with low tunings. Handcrafted in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Duncan Distortion uses a large ceramic bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. Used by more professionals throughout the world than any other. No copy can duplicate the double-locking design of the Floyd Rose Tremolo System that allows you to lock your guitar in tune at the nut and at the bridge. The Floyd Rose Tremolo System is engineered like no other tremolo system. Its high-quality steel parts are precision-made in Germany to exacting specifications, and it’s available in a variety of nut sizes that will fit practically any electric guitar. The tremolo kit contains the bridge, locking nut, springs & claw, mounting studs, and all hardware necessary for installation. Schaller tuning machines are still one of the best brands available for large acoustic or electric guitars. These M6 tuners have a very smooth action and are available in chrome, gold, black, and gold with Ebony button. They have a 12:1 gear ratio unless otherwise noted and require a 10mm (3/8) post hole.

I wasn’t planning to get a CC24 but did so this one became a filler and not getting played… I just dont need it. Its 8,6lbs, mostly unplayed. Has a very dark and nice fretboard. The guitar is very resonant and probably thanks to the Hide Glue top joint of the true historic. The whole guitar vibrates as 1 piece of wood. The top is amazing. That flame is beautiful. Comes with all tags, case and COA etc.. IT HAS A TINY DING ON THE BACK OF THE NECK. Otherwise the guitar is in perfect condition. Send me a message for any questions. Its a 2015 Custom shop true historic Les Paul 1959. Cant get closer to the real deal. All the true historic specs are as close as possible to the real 59s.
