This is a new Kramer VT111S, Str*t copy that has been heavily modified to put it in the same category of tone and playability as a USA Fender Strat, at a mere fraction of the cost!
For jazz tone, you'll find an authentic Bill Lawrence single coil-sized, S-280 humbucker pickup in the neck. This guitar quacks and jangles with the best Strats around.

For old-time R&R, a Seymour Duncan PAF style SSL-1 single coil pickup in the middle position blows the doors off other brand name reissue pickups.
And for screamin', blazin' leads, you'll find a super hot Seymour Duncan SSL-5 single coil pickup in the bridge.
Of course, all pickups have AlNiCo magnets and are perfectly voiced for this particular combination of pickups and installed positions.
Pickup selector positions 2 and 4 quack so much that you'd almost swear the guitar has a built-in wah-wah! If you play funk or jazz fusion, you'll love these settings.
Is excellent intonation important to you? How about low action with no fret buzzing? Do you want a nice,

flat radius fingerboard for easy string bending? Is solid tuning from song to song important?
If you answered yes to all the questions above, then I've got the guitar for you! US-made pickups, Grover tuners, genuine Fender Strat electronics and appointments all combine to make this Kramer a top notch, pro-level guitar that you'll be proud to play and play and play...
I have blocked the tremelo for better tunability and the fact that I never use it. With any string change you can easily remove the block of wood and have a fully functional, vintage style, 6 point tremelo, if you wish. She is currently strung with D'Addario XL110's with a wound 3rd (did I mention that I play jazz with this guitar? :)
