Today these Kramer Floyd Rose designed guitars can be ordered as an Abstract
$10,000.00 for the pair
Improvements Include  Bound Necks, Ebony Fretboards, Nicer Inlays,  Tremolo or Hard Tail
These are the two rarest of all Kramer Guitars.

They are the hardest to find Ed doesn't know anyone else who owns a pair of them.
They were designed by Floyd Rose. This pair came from Howard Leese of Heart.

Ed used to make these guitars. In fact, He made hundreds of them over a 15 year period.  These are currently not being built because Eddie asked us not to interfere with Charvel. I have a list of people who bought them from me.  Several can be bought. I'll give you the names of these people please call for info.  We still sell this guitar in kit form. Contact Ed directly if you are interested.

Ed likes this guitar far better than the Rickenbacker C Series 360, It sounds excellent and plays like a dream.

Abstract 
(Neck Through Body) JD Model

Ed makes it a practice to try and keep the first one of each series that is built. 
 It's getting harder & harder to do this because there are over 100 models now.
 The neck is the longest we have seen on any double octave guitar.
  I also offer this in a double neck model.
These JD model guitars were all built by Mike Shannon of Jackson Fame.
All the original Abstracts were constructed by ex-BC Rich and ex-Jackson employees. 
See the Abstract section of the site for all the history and the complete story.
This model is no longer available the new one is slightly different
 we have made some balancing improvements.
