Kramer Charlie Parra Vanguard Outfit Electric Guitar - Candy Red

The Only Axe That's Fit for a Peruvian Metal Master
One listen to Charlie Parra del Riego's searing rendition of his homeland's national anthem will leave you convinced of one thing: Charlie Parra is a Peruvian metal master. Centered around a modern offset "V"-shaped body, Kramer's Charlie Parra Vanguard is tailor-made for its namesake's trademark style of hard-hitting fretwork. Even before you plug it in, this axe's mahogany body is brimming with natural resonance and sustain. And when you do plug in, you'll experience high-headroom, PAF-like tones, courtesy of EMG 57/66 active humbuckers. To claim that this Vanguard is playable is an understatement — this solidbody electric guitar's 3-piece, ebony-capped maple neck practically plays itself. And if you like to burn on the upper frets, the Charlie Parra Vanguard's extended cutaway is eager to oblige. The Kramer Charlie Parra Vanguard includes a head-turning owl fingerboard inlay, gleaming chrome hardware, and a light-catching gloss finish.



Feature-laden, high-performance shred machine
Teeming with menacing style, the Charlie Parra Vanguard is laden with the high-performance features pro-level guitarists demand. Its modern offset "V"-shaped mahogany body exudes warmth and resonance, along with a healthy dose of natural sustain. Its 3-piece, Slim "C"-shaped maple neck features a lightning-fast ebony fingerboard with a 24.724-inch scale and 24 frets. An extended cutaway enables effortless upper-fret access. The Charlie Parra Vanguard sports an eye-grabbing owl fingerboard inlay, plus a pointed headstock with a pyramid logo.






Active EMG humbuckers for high-headroom, PAF-like tones
The Kramer Charlie Parra Vanguard comes loaded with a set of EMG 57/66 pickups — the most organic-sounding active humbuckers out there. Alnico V magnets and steel poles imbue these pickups with the classic PAF-like tones and alnico-fueled feel that have been coveted by generations of rock-minded guitarists. At Sweetwater, we appreciate the definition and presence that these EMGs provide, and the extra punch and headroom of their active electronics offer a huge advantage over similarly voiced passive designs. Thanks to its EMG 57/66 humbuckers, the Charlie Parra Vanguard is a sonically flexible beast. Like its namesake, this Van can tackle any genre — power metal, alternative rock, hard rock, indie rock, thrash metal, groove metal, punk, and more — with aplomb.
