Kramer Pacer Classic Electric Guitar Demo

[@sweetwater]

Rock like it's 1982! 🤘What riff will you start with?

[@kj197734]

82 is a weird transition for rock or metal. Maybe some Kreator, Venom, Judas Priest, Ozzy, or DRI.

[@maxmustardman298]

Def some Laura Branigan💃🏿

[@LicksoftheLegend]

Kramer is putting out the best budge shred guitars today. It's honestly hard to believe how good these and the baretta special are for the price point.

[@Scott__C]

I'm not left handed, but know a few folks who are. Glad someone like Kramer is doing this, since others only view it as a cost rather than turning other people on to their guitars. The pickups sounded pretty good. For under $400, it's tough to beat.

[@ALLMETAL1970]

For those who don't know, that is nick bowcott of grim reaper. An absolutely killer nwobhm band, they're as underrated as other nwobhm bands like avenger, savage, raven, diamond head and angel witch

Northwest Birmingham possibly?

[@brodywinebrewer998]

I always watch these videos when Nick does them

[@michaelmetal71]

i’m selling off my ibanez for the red pacer right now, and as someone who’s left handed i really appreciate that kramer has offered these models in a lefty version! i’m 54 and i grew up during the 80’s during the height of hair/glam metal and I’ve always wanted a Kramer, but they never were available left-handed unless they were a custom shop order and I couldn’t afford one as a broke teenager back then but now as an adult I can afford virtually anything I want looking forward to getting one soon

[@clivewinter8321]

I bought the blue and red pacers I'm so happy that I did buy them as there an absolute fantastic machine to play

[@countrylapi9245]

You literally demo’d songs that made us instant friends!!!! You Sir, are a good man…

[@dawson1787]

They couldn’t have picked a better person such as Nick Bowcott from Grim Reaper to showcase these beautiful Kramers! 🤘🏼

[@chairmankaga101]

Say what you want but playing songs from this era is an absolute blast. I have an ‘86 Baretta and it just begs for riffs that pedal the A.

[@crsantin]

Finally some left-handed guitars that aren't black! Thank you Kramer. I'm ordering one soon.

[@pixieloco]

so I got the purple one... wow. it plays fkn awesome,

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

Nick has some serious top self hard rock/metal chops. 👍👏

[@robertjablonski9830]

Thanks alottt... Now I got to swing by Sunday and check it out.

[@bestboy897]

sick playing

[@Anton_the_Vampire]

As a lefthander myself, this is awesome. Definitely need to check this guitar out.

[@nmarks520]

As a left-handed player, I love that Kramer has made this guitar available for the same price as the right-handed models, in the same finishes. Having to either pay 10 to 20% more, or have one color option to choose, is a HUGE issue. I'm looking at you, EVH/Fender. And Ibanez. And Gibson. And pretty much ANY guitar manufacturer.

[@starboy3741]

I’m so getting this guitar in red and putting black Seymour Duncan pickups in it I think it will look amazing

[@cecillancaster9462]

Finally some lefty guitars that aren't black. I have the LH Blue Pacer. I replaced the Alinco Classic humbuckers with Seymore Duncan humbuckers, JB-4 in the bridge, It's a beast!

[@leftyzappa]

One of the extremely few top mount lefty Floyd options available now outside of custom orders. Thanks Nick. I'm a lefty too. You know how fun that is. :P

[@dawson1787]

As a righty who only looks for guitars with top mounted Floyds I can only imagine how frustrating it is for you guys.

[@leftyzappa]

@@dawson1787 It's pretty frustrating lol. It *does* make actually getting a good guitar all the more sweeter though. I'm prepared to lay down $4000 on a custom Dean ML because of it.

[@dawson1787]

@@leftyzappa Jesus you’d never see me paying that much for a guitar but then again I’m not severely limited lol.

[@leftyzappa]

@@dawson1787 I used to have the same attitude…but I recently got a lefty USA Dean V and it is *perfect*. As I love the ML shape and want a Floyd guitar, I can see myself getting it. A be all end all really. I’ve got a Mexican Wolfgang Special that is almost perfect. Not my shape of choice though. Thus…🤓

Finally a left hand Kramer video

Loved this vid Nick,and im a bass playa lol🎸

Wrath of the Ripper!!!!

[@heyjarrod]

… shoot, just realized the bridge pick up volume is below the neck pick up knob. Last I got like that, I had to have it rewired. These types of guitars are on the bridge pick up 99% of the time, so it’s best to have the volume knob right there on top. Not only is the tone knob not needed on a Kramer, but it should really only have one volume knob, and one toggle.

[@siresrostron3709]

I love your style 🎸 big fans 🤟🔥

I am obligated to disclose that I have been absolutely, 100% ROCKED TO HELL!!!

[@adamp6401]

I’m a leftie and I’m looking to pickup a reasonably priced guitar to begin branching into learning some Metallica riffs and leads (I play pop punk usually). Would this be the best option or is there something else that would be preferable? I’ve heard mixed reviews on this in terms of the guitar staying in tune with the trem. Any advice much appreciated. I do like Ibanez guitars but in my sub 500 ish price range I’m limited in options.

[@Pissarrio]

I am not wondering what video gear you are using since this is an instrument and audio demo, I am wondering what effects and pedals you are using for this demo you smart people from sweetwater.

[@slbiggs36]

Wish it came in black, or white.

[@kramersurfer5280]

so unusual as i have a desert yellow colour of this guitar...but its never mentioned,

[@AljonGo]

❤🤘🤘

[@workingorder2189]

I hope Kramer reissues the grim reaper scythe guitar.

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

High performance at an affordable price.

[@LpNuesse]

Nice review, thank you Sir! #leftysrule

[@spaceavenger54]

Nick, What's it like going from a recessed Floyd Rose to a top mounted Floyd? I had an original Kramer brother you know the cream color ones that came out that was over 35 years ago I believe and ever since then I've been playing Jackson's and checkers that have recessed friends I'm just curious how my hand resting on top of a top mounted Floyd would affect anything. Also I believe you know a friend of mine if you remember him his name is Roger Holcomb is a manager at a music store here in Delaware, he's mentioned you before and said you were a great guy so see you in hell. :)

[@Zombie_13x33]

harshest sounding guitar i own. emgs sound ok in it. stock pickups are decent. overall the guitar is super harsh sounding in highs and higher mids.

[@RJ-sy4yh]

Are these even worth it though?

[@stephenkiszenia79]

Ibanez rulessssss!!!!!!!!!

[@chiefbucknell]

Came here because of the Working Class Music channel’s unboxing of one from the recent “Guitar House” series of videos. Reminds me a bit of my first guitar, which was a busted version of someone’s DIY attempt to turn a generic Les Paul into a Kramer-style guitar.
