1987 Kramer Baretta Guitar art 1987 - custom Knapp graphic

Rare 1987 Kramer Baretta "Guitar ship" graphic painted by Cliff Knapp. The two primary customer painters for Kramer at the time were Dennis Kline and Cliff Knapp. Cliff did several of he more high-end paint jobs including artists (Bon Jovi, etc) and some of the guitar art series. This one is called "guitar ship" and is one of the cooler ones IMO. The guitar art series Barettas are skyrocketing in value and I bought this as an investment....but find myself needing to move some investments to make financial room for other investments. I believe this to be all original with exception of the pickup which has been replaced with a Gibson USA pickup that I believe is a 498t. It is super hot and sounds great. Basic chips, scratches and dings to be expected with age but no cracks, breaks or repairs anywhere. Comes with original Kramer hardshell case. I am accepting offers but am pretty firm, my "into it" price is about the starting price. Local pickup welcome, all shipping is done through reverb safe shipping and 100% insured.
