Malina Moye puts her unmistakable stamp on the Pacer Deluxe, bringing her singular sound and style to a signature model shaped by 50 years of Kramer innovation
Kramer is celebrating its 50th anniversary with the launch of the Malina Moye Pacer Deluxe, a new signature model developed in collaboration with one of guitar’s most distinctive modern players. Finished in Splash Blue with classy gold accents, the Malina Moye Pacer Deluxe reflects five decades of performance-driven design from Kramer, while celebrating an artist who is pushing guitar culture forward.
“I really wanted to make sure it was perfect—a completely different type of Kramer,” says Malina in the launch video, which you can watch at the top of this article. “And you know what? I think we nailed something really hot.”
Malina is the first woman of color to become a signature artist for Kramer. Known for playing upside down and left-handed, she has built an original sonic identity that fuses rock, blues, soul, and funk. She has spent more than 15 years building an international career, performing on global stages spanning NBA and NFL events, major festivals, and international tours, while cultivating a devoted following in the UK and Europe.
The Kramer Malina Moye Pacer Deluxe comes in left and right-handed orientations
This signature Pacer Deluxe signature model blends a sophisticated aesthetic with a fast, responsive feel. It features a maple neck with skunk stripe and is loaded with DiMarzio® pickups: a Virtual Vintage® Blues in the neck position, an Area 67™ in the middle, and a Super Distortion® in the bridge. Pickups are selected via a five-way blade switch, while a master volume and two tone controls (one for the middle pickup and one for the neck pickup) complete the controls, all of which are mounted in a tortoiseshell-colored pickguard.
It also rocks a Kramer modern two-point non-locking vibrato system, gold knurled knobs, and Kramer locking tuners. In an essential nod to Moye’s own distinctive playing approach, a left-handed version is available. Each model comes with a premium Kramer gig bag featuring a reproduction of Malina’s signature on the exterior.
Also in celebration of its 50th anniversary, Kramer launched the Anniversary Collection in June, featuring limited-edition releases of some of its most celebrated guitars. Available only during this milestone year, the collection includes the 84, SM-1 HH, NightSwan™, Baretta, Pacer Carrera, and Volante HHFR. You can find them all here.
The Kramer Malina Moye Pacer Deluxe is available now via authorized Kramer dealers and the official Kramer website.
