Description
The Kramer Volante Quilt HHFR is made for the modern guitarist who wants speed, tone, and high-performance flexibility, all wrapped in a sleek, stage-ready package. With its sharp Ultramarine Burst finish and top-tier specs, it's ideal for intermediate to pro-level players-especially those into metal, prog, or any style where technical playing is front and center. It's a newer direction from Kramer, but still leans into that legacy of fast, expressive guitars built for players who need more from their gear.
This one's loaded with a pair of USA-made Kramer Neptune humbuckers, wired for five-position versatility that actually gives you a ton of usable tones-from classic full humbucker punch to more articulate single-coil-like textures. The body is lightweight alder with a AAAA quilt maple veneer, and the Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo paired with the R3 locking nut means you can dive bomb or flutter all you want without worrying about tuning. The compound radius ebony fretboard and 24 jumbo frets let you shred fast and bend wide, while the Elliptical C neck profile stays comfortable no matter where you're playing.
What really stands out here is the attention to modern playability: the sculpted heel, five-bolt neck joint with KeyLock stability system, and spoke wheel truss rod access all add up to a guitar that's just solid and smartly built. Whether you're in the studio or on the road, this is a guitar that keeps up with you. We're impressed with how well this balances performance and reliability, and it's clear Kramer designed this one with serious players in mind.
