Kramer Nightswan, Black Blue Dot Overview
This Kramer Nightswan model is the latest re-imagining of this classic signature model used by Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard.
The Kramer NightSwan has a mahogany body with a hard maple neck with a comfortable C-shaped profile with 16” radius that designed to be played fast and is topped with a durable ebony fretboard with 24 medium jumbo-sized frets. It also has the gold standard for tremolos - the Floyd Rose 1000 Series Tremolo with a Floyd Rose R2 Locking Nut which provides great tuning stability, even for extreme pitch bending and dive-bombing.
For pickups, it has a pair of powerful Seymour Duncan JB pickups at the middle and bridge positions, which are the ultimate hot-rodded humbuckers, delivering a thick, powerful low-end, chunky mid-range and crisp and articulate highs, and these pickups also deliver great sustain and harmonics.
The Kramer NightSwan is completed with black chrome hardware, a reverse banana-style headstock, white Pearloid dots in a ‘ping pong’ configuration and a unique, eye-catching Black with Blue Polka Dots finish.
