Ah, the
80's.....a time when electric guitars became sonic and visual works of art, and guitar
players took their skill to a new level.
In the 1970s
Kramer Guitars had moderate success with their aluminum neck guitars, but at the beginning
of the 1980s the attitude and tastes of guitarists had changed.
The entire
guitar world would be turned upside down by a dynamic team grasping to realize the change
thrust upon them. Attempting to reinvent themselves, Kramer pioneered a new benchmark of
style and form. With Edward Van Halen as their premier endorsee, Kramer Music
Products became the most celebrated guitar manufacturer in the world.
Whilst the
overall content and format of the book is forthcoming, the intent is to provide
stimulating commentary and information about the most unique guitar phenomenon of the
1980's.
