Kramer The 84 Custom Graphics The Illusionist in 3D Black White Swirl

The Kramer 84 is a lean, mean, shred machine. Inspired by the original Kramers of the ’80s as used by guitar heroes Eddie Van Halen, Neil Schon and Ritchie Sambora, the Kramer 84 delivers all the power and attitude you would expect from the original Daddy of metal guitars, Kramer. Finished in an eye-catching 3D Black/White Swirl, this is a Kramer exclusive graphic design. Designed by artist Bo Pittman, who took inspiration from hot rod motorcycle graphics, the original hand-painted model was featured at the 2020 Winter NAMM Show Kramer exhibit and was so popular that they partnered with Bo to replicate it for Kramer fans everywhere.

With an Alder body topped with the custom 3D Black/White Swirl graphic this 84 looks just as good as it sounds. It is extremely well weighted and feels brilliant against the body.

A bolt on Maple neck provides a bright and snappy tone, perfect for cutting through in both the studio and live situations.

The Maple fingerboard boasts a 12″ Radius, 25.5″ Scale Length, 22 Jumbo frets and a 1.626″ Nut Width.
