This thread has me researching my 600st' origins. In doing so found this on the Kramer guitar fan-website.



Also my guitar is apparently worth less than $200 but it sounds far better than anything I've picked up in the shop 3-4 times that.

I think the wishbass guys would be willing to do pretty much whatever design you wanted on the actual bass (it says as much on the ordering page,) and now I really want them to build me a non rear end in a top hat bass so loving bad.

I've been seeing "his" guitar line showing up used, locally. I wonder what people were expecting when ordering them and spending all that cash on shipping from Andertons.

Is it bad that knew exactly who that was before reading? I actually recall that ad originally appearing in Guitar for the Practicing Musician. Had to have been 88 or 89? lol

Yeah, I remember going into the guitar store in 88 or so and drooling over all the Kramer's in neon yellow with the reverse headstock! The one I wanted was like $1300: a bright yellow superstrat with a floyd rose. I wanted it so bad

p much. Funny story along those lines. Since I couldn't afford that sweet rear end Kramer, my awesome parents bought me a bright yellow Peavy for xmas that year. About 10 years ago, I decided to strip the yellow and refinish it. When I stripped it, it smelled like fake banana candy. I couldn't believe it. I called my wife in and she said, "Why does your guitar smell like bananas?" To this day, I don't understand what amyl acetate was doing in the yellow paint?

I'm fairly sure that it's used in some solvent-based lacquers as a hardening or drying agent, I'm sure I experimented with it when I was starting out.

On a related note, I once tried putting Eucalyptus oil in danish oil to make a minty guitar finish. After a week it smelled like someone had pissed in an altoids tin, it was a silly idea.

It looks like TONE VENEER to me. Hope it's stuck on with TONE GLUE though otherwise you'll lose some harmonic overtones around 1khz hjkjghkjfhkfgjkhfkhkfghkj

I've not really met many industry type people (thankfully), but I sold a guitar to a guy who ran a small studio and I swear they could be clones, goofy fucker kept tapping the body with a tuning fork to see 'what key the body is in' or some stupid poo poo. Made me sit around for 30 minutes until he paid me and 15 minutes of that was him playing 'Wish you were here' badly.

the guy on the right is the best because if you took away the dreads he would look like the love child of tobias funke and that one guy at your office that never talks whose name nobody can remember

he would basically be the most boring person in the world without dreadlocks, which is basically the answer to the question "why would a white guy get dreadlocks?"
