I thought this was kinda cool. January 1975 I believe.

That's a good old image - looks like a 1969 Lennon standing behind the post watching the guy play.

That 4005 is MASSIVE next to the 450.

Thanks for posting.

Cool --- not often one see's a couple of Double Neck models at the same time.

Umm-yeah,that is cool! Thanks for posting it,Tom!

Very cool, especially since I just got a first run Kramer bass last weekend!

There is an overabundance of hair in that picture!

Hey! I remember when we all looked like that!


Cool picture for sure!

This picture reminds me of the story about Jesus and the ten lepers: Only one was turning back to the real thing!

I wish I had the t-shirt hanging on the wall.

...for me the red 4001 on top of the wall would do already!

I'll take one of those, one of those, and two of those...

Lot more love for Travis Bean in that photo.

Cool pic though, wish we could see the whole display!

Lots of hair... AND a furry jacket.

I went on an aluminum guitar research mission yesterday after playing a monster, all aluminum 12 string bass in the morning from the Electrical Guitar Company. What a neck! So I learned more about that company, Travis Bean, Veleno, and of course Kramer. I will bravely admit that I sold my first Ric - a white '79 4001 - to buy a Kramer. I had it de-fretted about 20 years ago, and it's great!

Funny you say that as the t-shirt got my attention. What's on the t-shirt anyway?

The angle of the necks on the double necks is interesting, imo.
