Here’s what Kramer say about theCustom Graphics “White Lotus” Baretta

In many cultures, the lotus flower represents purity, enlightenment, regeneration, and rebirth. The Baretta White Lotus graphic was designed by Kramer Custom Graphic Artist Eric Caspers, who was inspired by movie underdogs from the 80s who overcame the odds to triumph in the end. The Baretta is a tribute to one of the most iconic and original guitar designs in rock. Features an alder body, satin-finished hard maple neck, a single Seymour Duncan JB zebra-coil humbucker, and a Floyd Rose 1000 series tremolo with an R2 1000 series locking nut. It also comes equipped with an EVH D-Tuna and a Floyd Rose LRT-L40 Trem Stop, and it is finished in an eye-catching White Lotus Candy Blue. A premium gig bag is also included.
