Sure i don't mind. Go ahead! The neck is aftermarket. I am going to go back and read through my communications with the seller and see if he said anything about floyd.......we texted alot lol so might have missed something Ok cool. I’m mostly curious for our own knowledge. Since I got my Kramer, I’ve been on a complete Kramer kick! |

Ok gtrjunior i just talked to him again and the bridge was added. He said original was dilapidated string through. So i am pretty sure it's a 300st. Unless the focus 3000 came with string through which i doubt. When you say string through I’m assuming you mean a tune-o-matic style? I don’t see any body holes on the rear for a typical string though design.... |

Some old licensed floyd you could just slide the string through where the bolts are that tension the little block to lock the string. You didn't have to cut ball ends off. They weren't as good as double locking ones but were more convenient for string changes.

Just finished installing pots and set up of the les paul. The pickups sound amazing!! Neck is so jazzy and warm but can be super punchy also with tone knob changes. Tone knobs are really responsive.....love it! The bridge pickup is like a super distortion but warmer a tad. Cost me $100 for the guitar, $13 for knobs and $15 for pots. This thing is in my top 5 guitars for $128!!  |

I received the kramer on Friday. The body is plywood but the guitar sounds incredible. It is my fave guitar out of my collection to play now! The tone and sustain i love and the feel. It plays so effortlessly.
I had to make adjustments however. I routed under the bridge so that i could lower the action and levelled and crowned couple of frets. The intonation was bang on lol suprisingly.
