  • Kramer Striker Questions

    At a local shop there is a used Striker for $99. It is metallic red with matching headstock. Chrome hardware in pretty good shape. It has a Floyd that is different than I have seen. It is marked Floyd Rose but looks like a Schaller casting on the baseplate and appears to not be a locking trem. Is it worth the 99 bucks to use as a paint project, or is this just a piece of shit? Fire away!

    Look closely, I think that's the floyd with the strings that go through the screws that tighten the string blocks (I call them barrel screws) on the floyd. I don't think I like that trem personally.

      It is plywood in case you didn't know but it might be OK for a project. See if you can get it cheaper....like 75.00 out the door.... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

        That would be a Floyd Rose II trem (the original version was single-locking). I've got a 600ST that had one of those... still have it actually, and the body is indeed plywood. It sounded and played awesome with an X2N and Original Floyd, served me well for many years, but it's now retired as the old wood Floyds posts moved foward. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

          I think I am gonna pass on this one. It is at Cash Converters on Rt.46 west in Saddle Brook, NJ if any one is interested.
