A Step Ahead and 2 Steps Back: The life and death of the original Kramer guitar company 1976/1991

by Michael F Plunkett, James J Muir (editor)

This is the true saga of the life and eventual death of the original Kramer guitar company. Throughout the 80's this company ruled the industry selling close to 1000 guitars a week. Most of the big-name musical acts of that era endorsed the company and gave them tremendous exposure through MTV and magazines. Mis management, greed, and a lack of vision to see what was next in the music business led to the demise of the once dominate company. Even today vintage Kramer guitars and basses are sought after and fetch high prices for some select models.
