Members boytbpc Posted August 19, 2013 Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 New belated aluminum neck guitar day! Last week I picked up a Kramer 450G. It was filthy, rusted, dirty pots, jack shorted whenever you move, pickups too low, intonation way off, the poor thing hadn't been properly setup in years. Of course, that just made it cheaper. A few hours of hard labor, and now I have a cool, unique, odd guitar to play. Once you get used to the neck, it is a lot of fun. It has great electronics and pickups sound fine (alnico 5 magnets.)

Members Preacher Posted August 19, 2013 Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 Wow, really interesting guitar! The neck looks pretty sweet and I like the way the lines on the back work between the body and the neck - also you don't see pickups mounted like that everyday, I'm actually curious to see the inside. Oh, and the wood looks great! HNGD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The middle screw attaches the the body and holds it all tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gardo Posted August 19, 2013 Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 I really can't decide what I think about that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kayd_mon Posted August 19, 2013 Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 Clips? That thing looks pretty different, for sure. I like the body shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wankdeplank Posted August 19, 2013 Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 Crazy cool. Love to hear some clips, bet it sounds pretty cool with an aluminum neck. Hear those things can be a bit neck heavy and very sensitive to temperature changes - only drawbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
