Kramer Striker HSS With Maple Fingerboard Electric Guitar Jumper Red
Description
The Kramer Striker HSS is brought to you by the iconic brand that defined '80s metal. Kramer pulled out all the stops to pack premium components into an ax priced for beginners. The Striker's mahogany body provides a warm yet balanced foundation for its trio of Alnico 5 pickups—a humbucker at the bridge and two single coils. This versatile pickup configuration delivers sparkling cleans, hard-rocking humbucker tones and everything in between. Kramer selected a maple neck and fingerboard for fluid playability, topping it off with their K-Speed Slim Taper "C" profile, thin and fast enough for furious fretwork. Throw in a licensed Floyd Rose locking vibrato and you've got a shred machine that stays in tune no matter how much you abuse the whammy bar. The Kramer Striker redefines what an entry-level guitar can be. The Striker is your passport to high-performance tone at an unbeatable price.
Tone for Days With Triple Alnico 5 Pickups
The Striker's trio of Kramer alnico pickups serve up a sonic smorgasbord. The bridge 5 HB-1 Zebra Coil humbucker packs plenty of output for high-gain tones, while the two single coils provide sparkling cleans and classic rock chime. 5-way switching lets you access each pickup individually or combine them for even more tonal variety. The middle position pairs the humbucker and neck single coil for thick, rounded tones that are perfect for lead work. With this kind of tonal versatility, the Striker inspires you to push your playing in new directions.
Built for Speed With Maple Neck and Licensed Floyd Rose
The Striker's maple neck and fingerboard were designed for playability and performance. Its satin finish and K-Speed Slim Taper "C" profile feel sleek and fast in your hands. To top it off, the Striker features a licensed Floyd Rose vibrato bridge so you can perform radical pitch bends and squeals while staying in tune. Between its shred-ready neck and Floyd Rose vibrato, the Striker was born to play fast.
Premium Components and Construction
Kramer didn't cut any corners when building the Striker. It has a mahogany body, die-cast tuners, volume and tone knobs, and black hardware for a premium feel at every touchpoint. The Floyd Rose R2 locking nut clamps the strings in place for exceptional tuning stability under whammy bar abuse. While the Striker is priced like an entry-level ax, its high-performance components and solid construction let you unleash your creativity without limitations.
