Style of Music: Post Punk, Punk, Jersey Shore Sound
Comments: The Kramer plant was a couple of mile away growing up, and I know many of the people who owned it and worked there.
I am glad I brought this beauty back home to NJ. The bass itself appears to have rarely been played, almost new-old stock. Even has the pickup rings!
The tone is one of a kind. It has a really cool quality if you dial the bridge pickup to all bass and the neck pickup to all treble. Just way cool.
Warning, this thing weighs, literally, a ton. If you are going to play it all nite, be ready! But it sustains like a piano. The action is the lowest I've ever been able to get.
I gave tone a 9 only because the original pickups are a little weak, and the A string just doesn't have as much power as the rest. I had Paul Unkert give it a once over and it didn't really improve there.
All in all, whether a lumie or not, it is one amazing bass. Never letting this one go.
