Kramer is back with five brand new models across the Kramer Original and Modern Collections – the Kramer 84, Assault, Assault Figured, Pacer Carrera, Jersey Star, and Nite-V. All five are currently available here through Kramer’s website.
Kramer 84
The updated Kramer 84 has more in common with the 80s-era originals than ever, including a new headstock rear—stinger that matches the body and front headstock finish, a new direct-to-body mounted Kramer USA Eruption T humbucker pickup, and a new retro-style knurled volume knob. The Kramer 84 also keeps some original aspects in tact like the lightweight Alder body, 84 Banana headstock, and Floyd Rose 1000 series tremolo – but now the R2 locking nut is rear-mounted, just like in the 80s.
The Kramer 84 is available in Intruder Black Satin, Eruption Red Satin, and Angel White Satin, as well as two online exclusive colors, Bumblebee Yellow Satin and Atlas Green Satin.
Nite-V
The latest version of the Nite-V features a Mahogany body with string-through-body construction, a 14-degree angled headstock, locking tuners, a Graph Tech nut, a thermally aged Maple neck with a K-Speed SlimTaper C-shaped profile outfitted with a bound Ebony fretboard with Thorn inlays and jumbo frets, and a pair of Kramer USA-made Eruption pickups.
The new Kramer Nite-V is available in Royal Blue Metallic and Crimson Metallic.
Pacer Carrera
The Pacer Carrera offers up a satin-finished Maple neck with a Slim profile, an Ebony fretboard, Seymour Duncan SH-2N neck and JB bridge pickups, and a genuine Floyd Rose 1000 Series vibrato and R2 Locking Nut. The Pacer Carrera is available in Ebony or Defender Red gloss finish.
Kramer Assault
The newly updated Kramer Assault features a new three-piece thermally aged Maple neck with a satin-finished back, K-Speed SlimTaper C profile, and 25.5” scale length, while the Ebony fretboard is equipped with 24 jumbo frets and decked out with classic Kramer Diamond Eye inlays. The Mahogany body is capped with a AAA flame maple veneer and is packing a pair of Kramer USA Eruption humbucker pickups alongside a Floyd Rose 1000 series tremolo and R2 locking nut.
The new Kramer Assault Figured is available in Caribbean Blue Perimeter and Magenta Perimeter. An exclusive Kramer Assault model is also available in Jet Black Metallic, Bumblebee Yellow, and Vice City Pink.
Jersey Star
The updated Jersey Star features gold hardware, a three-piece Maple neck with a satin finish, an elliptical C profile for speed and comfort, and a 25.5” scale length. The maple fretboard sports 22 jumbo frets and laser-cut mother-of-pearl star inlays. The Alder body also features a mother-of-pearl star inlay. It packs a trio of Kramer USA Neptune humbucker pickups paired with a master volume control, a five-way pickup selector switch, and individual coil tap mini switches for the bridge and middle pickups.
