Kramer Baretta Special 6 strings Right Handed Electric Guitar with Termolo, Ruby Red (KPBSRUCT1)

The media could not be loaded.  This is a nice well made Kramer guitar for fans of 80's-style & shred metal. I was particularly impressed with the great fret-job. Even/nicely levelled frets, rounded fret-ends and a nice low action with no buzz right out of the box! I have far more upmarket guitars that did'nt play as well without a setup. The sound is great. Pickup is pretty high output & sounds like a Seymour Duncan JB ..don't be put off by the single pickup, it's a tone-monster and is all you will need for awesome tone. Tuning stability is good, same goes for the fit & finish which are both excellent for a guitar at this price. I haven't been so impressed with a budget-priced guitar for years. So good that I ordered another from this seller. Hope it's also of similar quality and that mine wasn't a lucky fluke :p Packaging was sturdy & the delivery was prompt (I have had some bad experiences buying gear & guitars from other well-known online seller's so I generally avoid buying online these days) But this was a good buying experience & I received a quality instrument. Seller did a great job with that. Highly recommended!Update 3rd July 2021: Got my second guitar from this seller (Kramer Baretta Special - Purple). Every bit as good as the first! These are really well made guitar's that are excellent player's ..not just for the price.

I will start with I probably should have just returned it, but I am happy. This guitar felt like it was thrown together in 3 minutes. "made in china" not Indonesia, don't get your hopes upProblems:all tuner hardware was loose, tremolo screws were not all the way screwed in, some where quite far out!, trem not decked with supplied 3 springs, scratches\just ok paint job... and of course it wasn't setup up at all.Luckily everything screwed and bolted down nicely, I thought for sure the tuners were stripped, but nope they tightened down dine. I had to order more tension springs for 8$, I hope that decks the bridge. If not I will upgrade the bridge or go lower gauge strings. I was able to lower the action with the saddles and the truss rod didnt need any adjustment. This guitar feels good to me after all the work I put into it.After setup, action is perfect, as well as intonation. I bought this for my punk band, my band really missed me having a whammy bar for the beginning of one of our songs, so I got this guitar.. I got white, but I might have to get a purple one too (band voted white)..The pickup is totally fine/ amazing.. I was planning on putting in a emg81 before it arrived and try to do some stacked pot config, but I probably wont: I like how hot it sounds, great for my harmonics and very good sustain too!!!! UPDATE: I did have to back out the screw under the high e string a 3/4 turn to match volume of other strings when finger tapping.The frets are nothing special, but they were not sharp on mine like some complained about.Tuners seem fine, I wonder if people know to leave tuners in the tuned up state or there will be slack in the cheapo gears...again tuners are fine.. and if you deck the bridge even finer.I also got an upgraded bone nut coming in the mail since I will be using my whammy bar often..To make this guitar amazing it didn't cost much:bone nut 8-12$more springs 8$setup 0$, your a guitarist you should know how to setup your guitar.pickup 0$, no upgrade needed, its a great pickupOptional:neck? 200$ down the road after you do everything else.. might as well :)upgrade tremolo/bridge 25$ 50$ for nice one.Pro's:after all the BS, its a very good deal and perfect for my needs in my punk band, but also love pop like the eagles to primus ;).

Elle est superbe, un manche qui glisse tout seul, le micro pas mal du tout pour mon humble avis et parfaitement régler pour la mienne. Pour ce prix c est une guitare que je recommande a tous même si elle manque de polyvalence. Juste le vibrato est mauvais il faut mieux le laisser bloqué comme il est avec les 3 ressorts dur de cher dur.

Chitarra leggera, ben rifinita e con action perfetta. Manico comodo e piacevole da suonare. Ottimi legni e bellissimi colori.L' humbucker suona incredibilmente bene!Unici difetti, il ponte è veramente pessimo e la leva non si può utilizzare poiché si scorda subito la chitarra ma in questa fascia di prezzo è normale. Il potenziometro funziona solo a 10 e non è regolabile ma si risolve senza spesa, basta rimuovere il condensatore arancione.La consegna è veloce e l' imballaggio è perfetto.Nel complesso ottima chitarra per un prezzo così basso.Grazie Bax-music!

If the tuning was spot on then I'd have given this a 5....However, sadly the high e tuner slips from time to time.The guitar itself? I got the purple one - just 'cos, well, purple ROCKS, right? - and I must say that the body itself is well finished, with a really fantastic humbucker which is very (and I mean VERY!) hot sounding. The neck? Really exquisite. It reminds me of one of those very early MIM (Made In Mexico) Fender Telecasters that I bought - that was £199 back in '95 - in that it is one of the very best. That guitar was my favourite ever. However, unlike that Telecaster, this has what I'd call jumbo fretsI plays the 80's style stuff - Van Halen, Dokken, Ratt etc - so well and it'll have you smiling from ear to ear....great on power chords, leads...and of course...tapping!The tuning, if you were buying this guitar as a first guitar, would be an issue but this guitar has been one that, over the few years it's been out, has been one ripe for mods...as it will be for me.So...new tuners....retro fitting a Floyd Rose style bridge and locking nut.....and you'll have a beast. That's my plans for it.Do check them out. Came very quickly. Great Price.

War wohl ein Versandrückläufer, keine Originalverpackung und kein Zubehör, hatte man erwähnen können.Grundsätzlich aber kein schlechtes Instrument. Was man tauschen sollte sind Tremolo, Sattel und Poti, habe zusätzlich noch Locking Tuner verbaut. Pick Up ist eigentlich ok, sehr kräftig, habe ihn nur etwas tiefer geschraubt.
