Another Kramer thread!

[gfunk333]

Hey guys

It appears that we have a lot of knowledge old school Kramer guys on this thread. Can you guys please help me out?

Saw a Kramer Sustainer for sale locally ......

The only info I can dig up on google is:

http://www.vintagekramer.com/sustainer.htm

I'm a complete Kramer noob and would like some feedback ....

Hows the quality? Playability? Comparable guitar? Price? yadadadada

Any and all feedback would be appreciated, hopefully this will be my first Kramer.

good quality, made by ESP.

nut width will mostlikely be R2 or R4

the sustainer unit will mostlikely be dead, but it doubles as a standard neck pickup.

Price? OFR, Duncans, Alder (i'm pretty sure) body, what else do you need? so anywhere from $500-$800 depending on condition (based on today's prices)

Playability? its local, go try it yourself!

Correct me if I am wrong (and I likely am), but aren't the American series made in the US?

IIRC, the parts were ESP made, and assembled and set up in the US.
