For Hetfield Lovers

Gibson are now doing an '84 Explorer Reissue. It's been a while since I've seen any Metallica footage but it looks pretty much a bang-on replica of the '84 that Hetfield used between RtL and ... AJFA - right down to the EMGs.

Aye, I've been hankering after a good vintage Kramer for quite a long time seeing as my guitar teacher had a Kramer Pacer years back. I've got a Peavey V-Type, Jackson KVX10 and LTD M-200 and those are quite cool but Kramer really did perfect the headstock a few times really

Yeah, seen a few on ebay go for bargain prices and just wished I had the money to pay....

I've love a Kramer with these main features...white strat body, OFR, single bridge HB, banana headstock and maple board with black dot markings...basically a Charvel mutt style with the added Kramerness

Just try looking for an old Kramer and you'll be fine.
