Sorry if this has been posted before.

Kramer has brought back the *real* Baretta.

Music Yo has re-introduced the 1985 Baretta.

Here's a link to new cat.

Here's another link to the Kramer Forum with nice pics.

Kramer
According to those who have had a hand in the design, those who have played it and 1 who actually HAS one...

It's a DEAD ON to the original.. USA assembled..

That looks pretty cool. I pretty much grew up early on Kramers before switching to J/Cs.

A Maple board is in the works, further down the line.

In fact, in another VK thread.. there's a picture for a new reissue in the shop. Black, with matching headstock, maple fretboard. mmmm... [img]/images/graemlins/drool2.gif[/img]

Maybe, they will ask Eddie to paint some strips on them and we will see EVH on tour again with a Kramer. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

The non-tilt headstock was the original way it was done. When EVH went to Kramer, they couldn't copy his neck. They took his Charvel/Boogie Bodies neck, cut off the sides of the Fender headstock, plugged the tuner holes with wood putty, and added the banana "wings". VIOLA! a "Kramer" neck!!! LOL
