Can anyone identify this guitar?
I'm trying to put this together as a summer project--body picked up at a garage sale for nothing. It has a triangular back plate, one humbucker, and looks like it had a floating trem bridge. I think it's a Kramer, but any specifics would help.
Thanks,
FZ

Bump...still trying, folks.
It is a strat-shaped body, but has no pickguard; all electronics go in the back instead. It had a two-point fulcrum trem bridge and one humbucker. The unique feature I think is that triangular-shaped recess for the pots. Anybody recognize this make/model? Thanks again. |

I've got to say that It looks like an older mid 80's Kramer Barretta or Similar style, Though I'd say it is DEFINATELY a Kramer style guitar, can't think of anything else it looks like.
Hope this helped
LATERS! |

Thanks, Greg. I think you're on the right track there. I suspected it was a Kramer when I first bought the body (because of the bridge setup and body), but wasn't sure--and I definitely didn't remember that model. Much appreciated. |

What recently came to mind after my reply was that it MAY be a Charvelle, since bothe Kramers and Charvelles were both rather simillar in body style. |
