Kramer Duke Wiring

[Stan Hinesley]

I'm looking for a factory wiring diagram or schematic for an 80's Kramer Duke with the Schaller Double J pickup.

Any help would be appreciated.

I guess nobody owns a Kramer Duke?

I've got one but I don't have the schematic.

The weirdest thing is the pickup wiring, the toggle selects one coil, both in parallel, both in series (I always use the last setting as it's the fattest).

If you're REALLY DESPERATE and if you can explain what your problem is I might be be able to trace the wiring in mine for you. No guarantees!

Thanks for the reply. I'm not really desperate, just a little confused by the 8 wire pickup. I have it wired now so it works like the factory wiring but I'm just curious as to how they ran the original wires. When I got mine the pickup was missing and I replaced it with one I found on eBay.

I'm also interested in this. I want to add a warm passive pickup in the neck position -- DiMarzio maybe? -- but no idea how to wire it.

Add pickup and wire it the same as a Jazz. Use a stacked V/V if you don't want to add another control hole.

I also seem to remember ther was a pictorial of someone doing this to a Duke at the Kramer forum.
