There are a handful of things that really stand out about the Crafter Crema series. Crafter has put some seriously impressive hardware and materials into these guitars.
The Crema S features an American alder body, a one-piece maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard with stainless steel frets. Stainless steel frets are a particularly nice addition that we don't often see on guitars in this price range.
We're also big fans of the pickup configuration on this guitar. The two Alnico V single coils give you those classic S-style tones, while the bridge humbucker gives you a little more horsepower when you need it. A dedicated coil-split switch makes this an incredibly versatile guitar.
The Wilkinson two-point tremolo with solid brass saddles and a genuine bone nut round out a really well-equipped instrument. And it's hard to go wrong with a tobacco sunburst finish and a tortoiseshell pickguard.
