Description

What makes this guitar special: Dark and distinct, this Kramer Vanguard is one of the inherent hearts of rock and roll in the 80s. It comes loaded with two super hot EMG pickups that provide massive output. The neck is big and chunky while the bridge has boatloads of crisp bite. The slim neck moves easily at length and will be the perfect profile for anyone seeking something fast and trim. For its age, its also still in pretty fantastic shape, as it only shows a few love marks here and there, but is otherwise surprisingly clean for 30+ year old guitar. It even comes with its original hardshell case and a professional setup so it’s shred-ready right out of the case.

Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does show various nicks, dings, dents, scuffs, scratches, and other forms of normal wear, but is still in pretty fantastic shape for a guitar that’s over 30 years old. The frets show only light to mild wear but still have a ton of playing time left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod functions as it should. The case is only in fair condition, as it is a bit rough aesthetically, but still functions ok. The locks on either side work and shut, but are a bit of a pain to get open. The middle latch works just fine.

Body: Offset V shape body in Black finish. Black Floyd Rose Tremolo bridge. Black knurled dome control knobs. Back plate not included.
   
Neck: Slim D shape maple neck and rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays. Black sealed tuning machines. Wrench holder mounted on the back of the headstock. 1 11/16” width locking nut.

Electronics: EMG active humbucking pickups. 1 x volume, 1 x tone control. 3-way pickup selector.

Weight: 9 lbs 3.8 oz

Playability/Sound: The slim neck on this guitar moves very easily and will be perfect for anyone looking for fast movement. The EMGs are super hot and output a ton of big crispy tone, with more chunk in the neck and bite in the bridge.

Case: Includes original hardshell case.
