A high-performance homage to the golden era of shred.
The Kramer Baretta Viper electric guitar combines iconic '80s design with modern construction and striking aesthetics. Its Snakeskin Green Blue Fade finish, designed by Kramer graphic artist Chris Stemmer, pays homage to a time when bold visuals and high-octane performance ruled the stage. Built with an alder body and a satin-finished, thin-profile maple neck, this model is crafted for speed and comfort. A single Seymour Duncan JB zebra-coil humbucker drives powerful, articulate tone, while the Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo ensures precise intonation and dynamic pitch control. Complete with 22 jumbo frets and a 25.5" scale length, the Baretta Viper delivers effortless playability and stage-ready attitude in a head-turning, high-performance package.
High-Output Seymour Duncan Pickup for Versatile Tone
At the heart of the Baretta Viper's sound is the Seymour Duncan JB zebra-coil humbucker, known for its searing mids and crisp high-end articulation. This pickup generates powerful output, making it ideal for saturated leads or tight, responsive rhythm tones. Whether you're pushing an amp into overdrive or dialing back for clean tones, the JB humbucker provides a dynamic range and balance that cuts through any mix. The 500K master volume knob is equipped with a push/pull series/parallel switch, unlocking even more tonal versatility. The result is a focused, articulate sound that adapts seamlessly to your performance needs.
Floyd Rose 1000 Series Tremolo for Precision Pitch Control
The Baretta Viper features a Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system—a staple for players seeking expressive dive bombs and pitch-bending effects. Combined with the R2 locking nut, it ensures rock-solid tuning stability even under aggressive playing conditions. The double-locking system secures the strings at both the nut and bridge, eliminating the worry of tuning drift during long performances. With smooth operation and reliable performance, this tremolo system empowers players to explore creative techniques without compromising intonation. From subtle vibrato to extreme pitch shifts, the Floyd Rose 1000 delivers precision and durability for demanding players.
3-Piece Maple Neck for Lightning-Fast Leads
The three-piece maple neck on this model is built with Kramer's signature thin-profile design, offering a sleek and fast feel for technical playing styles. Its satin finish provides a smooth, frictionless surface that facilitates quick position changes. The maple fingerboard features a 12.598" radius and 22 jumbo frets, ensuring easy string bending and clean fret articulation. Black dot inlays offer classic aesthetics and clear visibility, while the bolt-on construction enhances snap and sustain. Paired with a dual-action truss rod, the neck remains stable and responsive, even under changing environmental conditions. This design ensures a comfortable playing experience for extended sessions.
Durable Kramer Build With Premium Components
Built with an alder body, the Baretta Viper offers a lightweight yet resonant platform for vibrant tones. The gloss body finish not only highlights the Snakeskin Green Blue Fade graphic but also provides added durability against wear. Strap buttons are strategically placed on the bottom and upper horn for secure attachment, while the black chrome knurled control knob offers a premium tactile feel. Additionally, the black wrench holder on the back of the headstock ensures your tremolo adjustments are always within reach. The robust construction and attention to detail make this guitar a reliable companion for live performances and studio work alike.
A Bold Baretta With High-Performance Playability
The Kramer Baretta Viper electric guitar combines a striking snakeskin-inspired finish with features designed for effortless performance. Its satin maple neck, Floyd Rose tremolo and Seymour Duncan JB humbucker make it a standout choice for players who demand precision and style. Complete with a premium gig bag, this guitar is ready to hit the stage or studio with confidence. Whether you're shredding leads or locking in rhythms, the Baretta Viper delivers both sound and style in spades.
