Kramer is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a golden new line of S-types, treating its most popular models to a glow-up.
The guitar brand was at the height of its powers during the 1980s shred scene, with Eddie Van Halen, Mick Mars, and Richie Sambora among the advocates of the shred-friendly axes. Its fortunes nosedived the following decade, with Gibson buying it out of bankruptcy in 1997 as it bid to restore the Kramer brand.
