Nice of that kid to bring it by. RAWK!!! 🤘🏼
EXTRA JUMBO BADASSERY!
Love my kramer! I did almost same thing. Upgraded all Floyd parts except plate, pickup, big brass block and claw and springs. Replaced bridge pu with jb and new pot.. what a beast of a guitar
Sweet Kramer!
Just WOW! All that titanium. The finish. And that thick-assed brass block on the trem. I mean, just WOW!🎶🎸😊❤👍
what a beautiful guitar , that is one serious shredmobile!
One day I wanna make a trip to Arizona to visit your guitar shop man. Love your videos.
I have one of these though not upgraded to the bones like this! Just added a D-tuna and made it dive only, plus a push in arm. Its easily my favorite in my collection. Debating getting a 42mm fat brass block as for some reason it comes with a 32mm block!
Alot of nice mods on that.👍
Cool guitar, a ton of upgrades done on it.
I just got one of the new ones for $199 at sam ash with a credit.. set the floyd up pretty well and it's been a great guitar, even stays in tune damn well
Nice job fret level midnight!😊 Thanks Zimm
Awesome Floyd! Great looking axe.
What an awesome guitar!! Lots of great ideas for modding projects there. Thanks for sharing!
Waaaaaaay above my technological expertise or point of guitar comprehension. Impressive guitar on many levels. Sounds delicious and its a looker.
Beautiful
Thank you for the video sir
That's freaking sick!!
Wow man this is such an awesome Kramer guitar I love it. Shred on.😃👍❤️🔥⚡️🎶🎸
Very nice!
Awesome Kramer!
he must love the hell out of that thing, it does sound pretty sweet
That is a slick/sick modded LE Pacer, 4 SURE!! I have a Gold Sparkle unit on the way (serial # only about 50 down the line from this one!) and a MIK Tiger Stripe unit in my possession. They DO like to reside in Eb Standard...and they are TONE MONSTERS in "stock" configuration!! With the "Treble Bleed Circuit" you can go from EVH "Brown Sound" to Dokken "'80's Hair Metal" with just a slight adjustment of the Volume Knob!! Really USEFUL Axes!!
I own the gold sparkle one. Great guitar and well built.. To heavy tho...
Yes, they ARE "substantial" (my Gold unit proved no different)...but I find THAT to be an important part of their "tonal character"! Great "Focus", as George Lynch described it. Just did multiple recording sessions with it...STANDING UP!! "Posture" and "strap choice" are definitely CRITICAL!
@@howardthrust Its the all maple guitar weight. Tone but heavy...
I agree a good strap helps alot.
I find the treble bleed is very agressive.
Yeah, for sure! Just a 10% "roll-off" (from "dimed") is all it takes...
@@howardthrust yes indeed... Those limited runs are made in Korea and well builtand they come with that Kramer molded case. .. Now all Kramer are Indonesian except the USA ones that made for artists..
I own alot of more expensive guitars and the Kramer blown them up Tone wise..
nice pacer, I have an 84 focus MIJ.. pretty nice but not that nice, has an OFR 84 .. yup, thick base plate, THICK
Great vid
Installing stainless steel frets is more expensive than regular frets because you need special files and also a press to complet the job.
Using a hammer to set the frets in is way too much work and hard to do.
Great guitar and great video as usual!
AWESOME X2
Cool t
o see a Malevolent Creation fan!
Yessir.
Great guitar thanks for sharing 😈🎸
This first run of reissue Pacers was awesome. The production ones they make in China today are upsetting.
yeah i was lucky enough to grab one while they were still made in indonesia or korea.
@@littleadventures2802 I missed out on the Pacers but I got one of the last Indo Baretta Specials. Gotta love Gibson and their China factories.
@@TylerJohnstonGuitar for real.. i had high hopes for kramer and i thought gibson was going to treat kramer like fender treats charvel and not like some beginner guitar sister company.. Kramer is waaaay to legendary and have such a big history surpassing both Gibson and Fender in sales back in the 80s just to now be a cheapo china made guitar company -_-
@@littleadventures2802 Agreed. Kramer is my favorite brand but it’s gotta be pre-90s. If I was to get an endorsement deal, I’d unfortunately pick another brand over Kramer just because of the Gibson ownership.
Ok Dane? So i have re freted a few Necks with Stainless wire, the last one i used Jescar NY super jumbo Stainless steel Fret wire and mine are all cut and dressed before they go in the Neck. It's because of the hardness it's done this way. Normal wire , i would put them in first. Still coming in September so don't forget to get some Tea bags.
Purdy 😎 Ain't it just ain't it.....
I love this guitar! I want to take a bite out of it for some reason. lol. The color is fantastic and gives me the warm fuzzies. Maybe it looks like a piece of juicy fruit. 🍉🍓
I bought the Gold one about 2 years ago brand new from an old 2015 stock. Very nicely built by the Koreans and it comes with a molded Kramer case, very rare on a guitar with that price point.
The tone of this All maple guitar is just incredible. I found that the Treble bleed is very aggressive and i toned it down a bit.
Oh and it weigh a ton lol....
Bad ass guitar brotha!! My absolute favorite ever. I just bought a Pacer classic and am upgrading part by part!!
I might have slapped your hand when you were mashing the kill switch like tweak...
That's a badass Kramer!

Becarful titanium does not agree with brass parts
My first real decent was a guitar just like this. I was 14 years old. Not sure about the titanium. I doubt mine had that 🤣. Mine was emeral green. Looked like glass. I didn't even know Eddie's was a makeshift Kramer. I loved that guitar and miss it.
Edit: I know my Pacer didn't have all the upgrades this guy put on his. I had Seymour Duncans for pick-ups and a regular floyd rose. But I remember mine soubding better than that. Maybe the amp they plugged him in?. I played thru Marshall head and cab.
This is a guitar I've had modded over a year or so time as an adult with a regular career, yours was back in the day when you were 14, I can't blame you for not having all the upgrades, depending on your age some may have not even existed. As for the awful tone, I agree, Dane just needed a quick video and didn't bother with dialing in the tone perfectly on the little Fender tube amp he used, just wanted to show it in action.
@@FretLevelMidnight You made me miss my guitar 😂 I really like your guitar and the upgrades. You have a killer ax going on there, and I had a feeling it was the amp not the guitar. It still sounded good but I know it's got to scream. That's what I was missin' . I had my guitar for quite awhile, up till my early 30's. It seen alot, bar rooms, a tour and a couple studios before I sold it. But I have a few other guitars I a had a Parker nite fly, two Jackson soloists and an LTD . But I miss the Kramer. Always will. Keep rockin' bro. Thanx for sharing you guitar 🔥🎸🔥
I modded my Peavey Predator about this much back in the day.
The titanium Floyd is more expensive than the guitar.nice guitar though
You're 100% correct, but I heavily mod everything I love. 🤷♂️
That is a really nice looking guitar. I do have a question though. The nut is locking so why have locking tuners? I never understood that. Another thing, people are ALWAYS going to bag other players. It’s natural. Come to expect that. Always going to be a few in the crowd. I wish I was good enough to have a string dampener. Maybe one day.
@@billybigbass4461 Locking tuners are for faster string changes.
Ok, but string changing takes like 5-10 minutes. The inspecting, cleaning, conditioning takes the most time. The only purpose for them is with a non locking nut. Otherwise it’s redundant and a waste.
@@billybigbass4461 5-10 minutes a string change when you own over 20 guitars is much more lengthy than you're making it out to be. It's not redundant to me the owner to have high grade tuners on an instrument I play almost daily, them being locking is only a feature and doesn't attest to the great quality tuners that are Graph Tech Ratio locking tuners. You keep your guitars how you want them, and I'll keep mine the way I want them.
Music yo
This is not a Music Yo Kramer.
My brother has had a Kramer since the 70s and it still sounds great. You spent alot of money to mod this guitar , maybe the money would be be better spent on lessons.
Not to be rude, but that sounded TERRIBLE , especially once he upped the gain on the amp. Am I way off?
I think that’s the amp, doesn’t sound properly dialed in at all.
The amp was a tiny 5 watt Fender amp, I did what I could, lol.
The most stupid quote of the month is ..” i like full floating that’s where Eddie and I differ “ Really 😂
Buys a bunch of lightweight titanium parts then an extra heavy trem block lol. Buying snake oil from competing scams lol
I bought the titanium to offset all the weight from an all maple neck and body, I also enjoy a fat naval brass block, I notice a tonal difference.
@@FretLevelMidnight One that cannot be proven
@@timcole421 That's completely subjective, but believe what you want, I couldn't care less, stranger.
@@FretLevelMidnight No, the point that it cannot be proven is fact lol. I believe that you really think you hear a difference. But cannot prove it.
@timcole421 No, it really isn't, hence the lack of peer reviewed data, either way I don't give a shit what you think, dude. Live your life, I'll live mine.
Nice shredder guitar too bad that dude has nothing to shred about.
