Purchased this guitar on eBay, my first ever internet guitar purchase. I remember being nervous about buying a guitar based on pictures alone (hilarious now that I purchase almost all of my guitars this way now), and the seller never provided a tracking number and I was really thinking I got scammed. Anyway, guitar arrived in great shape in the original case. I’d been wanting a Kramer since I started playing and was thrilled to finally have one.
This was my first guitar - an incredible gift from my parents after graduating high school. I had been looking for a Rickenbacker 350 Liverpool because Susanna Hoffs of the Bangles played on, but that guitar proved very difficult to find. Eventually we found this one in a local shop - at the time Ric’s were very scarce - so we jumped on it.
While not exactly what I had in mind for my musical style, as I was getting more into 80s hair metal and rock, this is an incredibly high end instrument with a very unique tone. I’m glad to say I haven’t sold it all these years despite thinking about it very seriously a few times.
