I am selling my 1987 Kramer Nightswan in the Blue Polka Dot finish. This guitar is ALL ORIGINAL except for the Schaller Strap lock buttons currently on the guitar. As it is a 34 year old instrument there are several marks, nicks, and such on the guitar, I have tried to show every one of these in the attached photos however the guitar is in excellent playing condition and is still in great shape for its age, nothing aside from cosmetic imperfections. Truss rod is fully functional, and the Floyd Rose tremolo is all original, currently set up with Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky 9-46 and tuned to E flat a la most Van Halen recordings. Tremolo arm is also original, as are the Seymour Duncan Full Shred and JB pickups (see photos for details). 
I am aware that my asking price is more than what many people may consider what this guitar is worth, and am not in any way looking to fire sale this piece, so whatever your thoughts on my asking price please don't insult me with ridiculously low offers. 
As far as the main cosmetic flaws to note, they are:
- a vertical crack in the clearcoat below the bridge on the treble side, this is not visible unless you're looking straight at the body and to be honest I didn't see it when I purchased the guitar, as the photos I saw of the guitar didn't show this crack â€ƒ                                                                                                                                                  
- a small ding below the Floyd Rose under the low E string, this is not overtly noticeable unless you are looking directly at the top of the guitar                                     
- there is a chip one one side of the neck pocket in the paint, and a small crack on the other side  
- several imperfections in the paint as shown in the attached photos, as well as a slight scuff in the clear on one edge, most of which are almost impossible to see but in the interest of being 100% transparent I am noting or documenting everything I can find for this listing
- I have reached the maximum number of photos for the listing but would be happy to share anything else that a potential buyer might wish to see

This guitar will ship in an ESP Guitars form fit hardshell case, which fits better than most other generic style hardhell cases, as it keeps the guitar from moving around in the case, unlike most generic hardshell cases.
Canadian buyers - I will ship via UPS Ground, insured for the full amount, which is why the shipping may seem higher than you might expect but I am not willing to cut corners on shipping. I have exceptional feedback on both eBay and Talkbass and have shipped and sold hundreds of instruments over the last 25-30 years.
I will also be filming a video clip that will be available to interested buyers demonstrating the guitar is 100% functional and will provide this via a link once it is completed.
Thank you for your interest, please feel free to send me any questions via Reverb message.
Finally - I will ship this via UPS 3 day air to the USA, and as such it will be insured for the FULL VALUE, and there may be customs charges or duties payable by the purchaser and these are NOT included in the price and are solely the responsibility of the buyer. I am not responsible for any taxes, customs fees, or duties that may be incurred.
