Description: Japanese Domestic Market version of the infamous 'Holy Grail' Kramer Baretta from 1983-1987. No need to pay thousands - or dream of - buying one of those when you can have almost the same guitar for much less. All the Kramer Barettas from that period were made by the ESP factory in Japan. The American models were just assembled in the USA. Same necks, same wood choices, same electronics. The only thing this one is missing is a Seymour Duncan JB.The catch: The headstock has been repaired - professionally: Tightbond wood glue and clamp for 24 hours. The repair is permanent, you can dive bomb on it all day long and it will hold.Information:Original, German Floyd Rose TremoloGotoh HumbuckerGotoh TunersESP Made Maple NeckComes with cool leather gig bagI do a basic setup on the guitars I sell:Clean the entire body Done (11/23/24)Adjust truss rod if necessaryClean and oil (rosewood or ebony only) the fretboard Done (11/23/24)Polish the frets Done (11/23/24)Fresh set of Ernie Ball Slinky 10's Done (11/23/24)Tune to E Standard Done (11/23/24)I set the bridge level with body Done (11/23/24)Set the bridge/string height Done (11/23/24)Set the bridge pickup height Done (11/23/24)I do not stretch the strings, set the intonation, or tighten the 3 lock nutsPacking and ShippingI always loosen the strings and support the tremoloSpecial care is given to protect the headstock, especially if it is tilt-backI wrap any accessories away from the guitarGuitars I ship without a case get completely bubble wrapped and then surrounded by padding inside the guitar shipping box.I draw arrows on the box so the carrier does not transport upside down.I always ship using UPS Ground with Insurance and signature required.The majority find my setups to be just right, and playable without any professional intervention. This setup may not be to your specifications, however. If it does not feel right to you, please consider a full setup to get the guitar dialed in to your preferences.Photos are part of the description. Check out my other guitars for sale
