The Kramer Assault
Neck and Headstock
Neck Species
The guitar's neck is made from solid maple.
Neck Profile
The neck on the Pariah is carved to a slim, wide profile, the most popular neck shape for shred-style rockers.
Neck Joint
Kramer uses a bolt-on neck on the Pariah for added tonal definition and easy maintenance.
Truss Rod
The guitar's truss-rod adjustment access is through a slot at the headstock, making set-ups and neck tweaks a breeze.
Logo
The headstock wears a modern "Kramer" logo decal.
Fingerboard and Nut
Fingerboard Species
The Pariah's fingerboard is made from select rosewood, one of the most popular woods for use in this part of the guitar.
Frets
The fingerboard has 24 medium-jumbo frets, with an easy reach right up to the top thanks to the Pariah's deep double-cutaway design.
Fingerboard Radius
The fingerboard of the Pariah is both cut to a 12" radius, which provides excellent playing ease and comfort, and avoids any dead spots or "choking out" of notes while bending strings.
Inlays
Acrylic mother-of-pearl "thorn" inlays adorn the fingerboard.
Nut Width
The width of the nut on the Pariah is approximately 1.68", which provides the neck room required for fast shred playing styles.
Tonal Characteristics
The solid maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, and bolt-on construction all contribute to the Pariah's outstanding clarity and articulation, and help to enhance the depth and richness of the guitar's tone.
