Kramer Baretta with Custom Paint and EMG 1986 Blue Snake

This is an EARLY 1986 Kramer Baretta. A low E serial # and the Small block logo confirm this. It has a phenomenal looking custom snake skin paint job. I don't know who painted it. They did one heck of a great job. The photo's don't do it justice. It is great looking. I think the original color was black.
This guitar is in Excellent condition for being 32 years old.
It has normal wear. Some scratches, dents, dings. See the pictures of the pic's. There is a finish check/crack in the back of the neck finish. THIS IS NOT in the wood.
A few larger dings in the body near the edges. These could be filled and buffed out. A previous owner installed the football jack plate in order to install the stereo jack. The output jack hole was expanded. I wish someone would have told him to buy a stereo flush mount jack. Be assured this is a REAL 1986 Baretta. The control cavity has been copper shielded. It has a new 25k CTS pot.
The neck, and frets are in excellent shape. The Floyd Rose bridge is original, clean, and works flawlessly with NO Rust. The guitar has been PROFESSIONALLY SET UP with D'Addario 9 Gage strings. It plays awesome with great low action, and no buzz. It sounds AMAZING!
It was set up by a Authorized Fender repair shop by a Luthier/Guitar Tech with over 30 years of experience.
This guitar has an EMG 81 active pickup.
Comes with an era correct electric guitar case in this sale. This case would sell for $100.00.
I have sold several 1986 Kramer Baretta's in the past 2 years. Usually average about $1,500.00 or more.
This guitar is very cool with the custom paint. So I am asking a little more.
Please see my shop for other guitars. I have several other cool guitars for sale.
