To me it just seems like dude might not know how to restring a floyd correctly. I asked him to send me a pic of the bridge problem that he was talking about.

 

Here is his problem

 

 

Im pretty sure with a restring and a setup it would be good to go. Think its worth hitting for $80?

Looks like he either switched to a heavier string gauge and didn't adjust the springs in the back, or loosed the screws holding the springs(or removed a spring). Simple fix just takes a little time to find an nice equilibrium. You may want to examine the trem where it meets the posts before buying, on most cheap guitars the metal used is not the best quality and may be worn enough that you could having tuning issues.

Get a picture of the trem cavity.

 

1.How many springs?

2..09's use 2 or 3 springs

3..010's use 4 or 5 springs.

4.Trem claw needs adjustment.

Think it's worth what he wants. Even when it's set up correctly are these guitars jus total crap? Seems pretty cheap for an early 80's kramer.

I lost out on one of these from daddy's junky music by about 2 minutes. (Didn't stop them from charging my credit card and stringing me along for 2 weeks)

It was $130 shipped with hard case.

I think it has a plywood body. Personally I'd pass. I already have one. It was Kramer's lowest end model.
