..........I decided to get one. I'm pretty damn impressed with this thing. It's solid mahogany, set-neck, real quilt maple top, full body/neck/headstock binding, abalone around the body, neck and headstock. Even the Kramer logo and inlays are abalone. The neck feels thin and more Jackson-like than anything, completely different from any of the other Kramers.

Re: With all this talk about Les Pauls............
DUDE!!!! I love it. It looks very similar to the ESP LTD EC-1000 Eclipse Deluxe that I fell in love with and want to get the ESP Standard version of.
What year was that Kramer? I think I remember some sort of association between Kramer and ESP, and maybe that Kramer was perhaps a precursor to the ESP Eclipse that I so badly want. Anyone know more about it?

Re: With all this talk about Les Pauls............
How much did you pay for the Kramer? PM me if needed, whether you got it from Ebay or found it locally. I could be very happy with one if it were significantly cheaper than the ESP Eclipse, which I know the retail price of one brand new.
By the way, what's the model name of that Kramer? I've never ever seen one before. I presume it's short scale.

Re: With all this talk about Les Pauls............
MusicYo.com/Kramer got these Les Pauls almost 2 years ago and quickly sold out of this model(Custom). They rarely show up on eBay and when I found this one on eBay, I had to have it. The previous owner had stuck a Jackson pickup in the bridge(gave me the original Gibson too) and put locking Sperzel tuners on it. I got it for $275 plus shipping thinking we may never see these things available again.
Well guess what???.......... MusicYo.com just got another shipment of these guitars in this week! They are $449 brand new and if you want a red one, I'd order very quickly. They come in 2 varieties, the Standard(plain) and the Custom(fancy).

Dang, nice price! Did it come with a case?
I just checked MusicYo's site. It doesn't say whether it's a compound radius board or not. And it doesn't even include a gig bag although there's a suggested one. The trans black Custom looks intriguing.

Maybe it's after market. Maybe not. Gibson did a lot of guitars with Kahlers in the 80's.I want REAL change. I want dead bodies littering the capitol.
