Cool score! Nice Mahogany body with a Lefty Claw Neck and top quality parts. Not a bad price when you add that all up, especially if you NEED a lefty.

I saw that one myself, nice guitar for the oddballs :) I don't think I have ever seen a lefty with claws??
There was 1 more lefty on the bay I thought someone might snag, but I think it's still there? I was going to post it but the BIN went away. I think it was a Pacer? can't remember

Everybody needs one gold trimmed axe! :toastAgreed!:thumbsup
When I first saw this thread I was torn either way. But now I say 'Go with the gold!'
Also, I wasn't aware that it was comin' from a forum brother. So......hats off to Vinnie:notworthy

i gotta agree that the gold compliments the wood better than what black would, nice one Mies your Kramer Kollection is growing at an alarming rate!

Thanks guys!
Yep, it would be my third, although I have built a total of 6 Kramers so far :thumbsup This one will replace the PC-I which is perfect as well but just can't live with the HSS setup. If it wasn't original I would have filled the holes...
I will keep the gold first anyway and see if it grows on me! Can't wait to get this baby, and thanks to Vinnie for another great deal :urock
Just wanted to add, the PU's are exactly what I want which is a great plus. For those who never saw a lefty claw before, here is my ClawRetta with NOS Claw just like the V (the ClawV will join the Clawretta, LesPel and Soloist as my stage axes :thumbsup )

The only other lefty Claw I know of is from Remy, he has a red tranny pacer Imperial with Claw neck :headbang
I don't think he will part with it....can't blame him :thumbsup
