Vid on the back up KRAMER

[dirtycooter]

not the swamp-northern debate again.... lmao!
But I would love to know out of curiosity what it weighs. I am a swamp ash man and thats that-bit interested to see what this is really though. Just for shits and giggles

[stramm8]

my ears tell me PAF, at least until the 80s stuff.

where does he say the body is ash? never heard that. Had I been there, would have axed totally different questions.

still, very cool. How much do they want for that guitar?

I emailed the guy who made the video and here is what he said:

Hey Chris...thanks, appreciate it. I do believe he did mention it was ash.

Thanks.

Funny part is that they label this guy a Kramer master luthier.

Then the" Master Luthier" jokes of how badly he built the guitar.

The "Master Luthier" that built the guitar does not know the wood type or pup he used even with him holding it in his hands?

Wow, Kramer had talent on board.

BTW 6 figures when the seller's thread existed.

Kramers were a cosmic joke, they were not even USA made. yeah they felt good and had good tone but your were playing a LIE! they were either ESP or LADO made

Lado made some of the best hot rods in the 80's. I hade one and never should have sold it. They had a cheap line called the Hawk series. Everything else was way ahead of the competition. These 2 are from the mid 80's.

I'm wondering if Ed painted the Kramer Ad Frankie, based on what Unk said his typical process was...

[evhguitars]

How was this guy ever a Master Luthier for Kramer EVH or anyone? He surely does not seem to have much knowledge.

I agree and kramer was making their guitars from ESP/lado/??? parts anyway so how can this UNK be their luthier?

[evhguitars]

Unk was viturally UNKnown until the internet age. I never understand why people strated labeling him a Master Luthier that built guitars for EVH..

Kramer was an outsource parts company assembling overseas parts..not a guitar mfg. company. They had no expert builders on hand inside or outside of the company..

EVH mainly was using Boogie Bodies, Charvel, Tom Anderson..

When he signed up with the Kramer, for endorsement sales only, there were no Kramer expertly built guitars coming to him from Kramer for him to endorse..

NO argument here! I NEVER heard of him prior to this 5150 talk,ad like you said he is far from a master luthier considering even the franks he built are utter junk. eddie played great and thats why people fall for the he is a great builder think with UNKERT. I hate that tuning fork headstock he came up with!

[evhguitars]

I think the Vid explains a few things. 1. Unk was not a Kramer master luthier and he only modded and assembled the guitar.. 2. The guitar is junk and is uncomfirmed and is a collector reject because there is only a letter from an ex disgruntled EVH Tech. Any collector that would be interested in the guitar has already owned it and has rejected it from his collection as it was not a keeper. Because there are no videos or photos of EVH with the guitar or hard proof of it ever being his..
