George's Guitars
All Images © 2002-2013 KramerForum.com



Since 1999, I have owned over 60 cool and vintage guitars in my collection.  The majority of these have been major brands of  yesteryear, with a special focus placed on superstrat and hard rock brands like Kramer and Jackson / Charvel.  At one point I owned over 40 guitars in a small New York apartment.  I have fewer guitars in my collection today, but I feel very fortunate to have played so many different instruments over the years.  
My verdict is that all of these have been slightly different, with different mojo, tone, and playability.  Quality has also varied widely, from "how did they allow that to sell" to "boutique, masterful, inspirational."  
Please see below for photos of guitars I own today as well as ones I have sold, traded, or gifted over time.  I have retained a nucleus of rare Kramer guitars and have also focused my efforts on building my own custom guitars with premium parts from Warmoth, Schaller, and others.  Please don't hesitate to email me with any questions: george at kramerforum dot com.  Keep Rockin', George T / NYC 2013

Kramer Aluminum Neck Guitars, 1978-1980. My collection includes a "Kramer Sticks its Neck Out" poster reprint by
Gary Kramer, and a Gary Kramer signed paperweight/sales tool.


 
 


Rare Kramer Pacers, lawsuit "Strat" headstock. These are all different, have cool tone and playability, and a feature a manly vintage Fender "V" neck.  These very much have a handbuilt, San Dimas vibe to them.  Today I only own the transblue strat.  


1981-1983 Kramer Vanguards -- ready for liftoff!  By 2011, I have kept only the strathead Vee.  


1989-1990 Kramer Pacers Custom I and II, with artwork by Dennis Kline and with holoflash finish.


Custom guitar designed and assembled by me in 2005. Warmoth neck and body; airbrushed by Shadoe McKee of Beyond Custom Guitars.
The story of "Russian Camo" guitar may be read Here.
