Description

Unleash your inner rockstar with the Kramer Striker 211 Custom, a solid body electric guitar designed to deliver powerful performances at an unbeatable value. Perfectly sculpted from resonant mahogany, this double-cutaway guitar provides both comfort and a big, robust sound that’s ready to conquer any stage. The licensed Floyd Rose tremolo bridge, paired with a locking nut, ensures you can nail those wild dive bombs and whammy bar antics without sacrificing tuning stability, making it an ideal choice for shredders.

The Striker 211 Custom is equipped with a versatile trio of pickups: an Alnico V humbucker at the bridge and two single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions. This configuration offers a wide range of tones, from bold and aggressive to classic and glassy, suitable for anything from high-octane rock to smooth blues. The inclusion of a "treble bleed" mod on the master volume ensures your tone remains crisp and vibrant, even when dialing back the volume.

A bolt-on maple neck with a thin-tapered profile offers a fast and smooth playing experience, complemented by a 24-fret maple fingerboard adorned with unique thorn-shaped inlays. Whether you're a seasoned performer or an aspiring musician, the Kramer Striker 211 Custom is a guitar that not only looks striking but also delivers the sonic versatility needed to explore and expand your musical horizons.

I have 5 of these!

Affordable guitars made by Epiphone. These have quite standard parts so replacing pickups or dropping in an OFR is super easy. Always maintains tuning and is a well-balanced machine.
