WTB: EVH Kramer Type 5150

the.godfather · #1 04-04-2005, 02:50 PM

Guys,

I am really after a good Kramer guitar at the moment. It has to be in an EVH graphic though, or a colour that can be turned into an EVH graphic e.g. Red. Then I can just add the stripes myself. It doesnt have to be a factory model, it can be home made - just as long as its nicely and accurately done!

I want the 5150 Kramer type only. NOT the Frankenstein strat type. This one is what I want:

I gather everyone knows what they are, and what they are all about - so I wont go into too much detail. I just want a nice version of it. Possibly one of the recent Kramer 1984 reissues they did.

It must have:-
The Banana Headstock
The old Pacer bodyshape
Real Floyd Rose
A Decent Humbucker Pickup

If anyone has got one, or knows someone that wants to get rid of one let me know. Maybe a place that sells them or a source of some sort too.

A couple more things.
I know I will have to buy from the US with this one, because these type of guitars in the UK are very scarce. So shipping to the UK must be okay with the seller.

I will accept Warmoth part versions as well
But please, dont anyone suggest to me to buy mine from Warmoth myself. I just cannot be bothered with the hassle, and Warmoth posting to the UK is just a pain.

I wont put a price because I am not 100% sure how much one will cost me!

They did mine about 5 years ago, and it wasn't all that expensive.

Sorry for the discussion, but I think you want to start with a white guitar if you're going to paint it yourself.
