Looks like someone opened up the neck pup routs a bit to allow for the tab on the replacement pups. Nice axe.

Thanks for that. I picked it up for $450 so I think that's a good price. Of course I don't have it in hand yet to know how good the condition is, but it's advertised as being in good shape.

Anyway, I belive that it has the Jackson Trem with the behind the nut locks. Aren't these hard to keep in tune?

If the trem is ok I think that I'll just customize this one and make it a keeper.

That trem & lock system stays in tune well if everything is working properly, but that's the catch. They weren't made with the best metal, so they tended not to hold up well over years of abuse. The knife-edges often are worn, and the string-lock screws strip easily. Many people just replace theirs with an OFR. The guitars are definitely worth spending the money for a good trem. If there is slippage at the behind-the-nut lock, you can buy new locking plates from Budman. He also makes replacement trem posts for these.

Thanks for the information DG!!

Looking at that trem, an OFR should be a direct replacement, assuming the studs have the same spacing.

Looks like a keeper, to me.

Dude, that Kramer in the neon pink is so sick! I never saw a pic of it before.

Is that a Hamer Chaparral or a Centaura?

The JT-6 trem is a great unit, the after the nut string lock works great.You got a nice deal there.
FWIW I have never had a problem with that set up.I have a very well worn USA Jackson with the JT-6 trem and never has it failed me.Rock solid trems IMO.
