A sneak peek into Gary Kramer''s latest product line: the Crusader Series
Special Advertising Section
Deluxe Crusader models feature a double humbucker layout with an optional series/parallel wiring, which keeps this instrument absolutely noiseless, even at the highest gain settings.
Only a handful of names are as synonymous with guitars as Gary Kramer’s. His impact on the evolution of the guitar, first with the introduction of the aluminum set-neck Travis Bean, and later with his Kramer brand, easily places him in the book of guitar world pioneers.
The 2009 Gary Kramer collection represents guitar design at its finest. Both the boutique line of American-made guitars and the high quality import series are a confirmation that Gary Kramer’s vision is still A Step Ahead.
