While I still prefer my LTD/ESP for the super fast neck, the Kramer is super versatile with the coil splitting. I can play our entire set minus two songs with the same guitar rather than going back and forth between the LTD and my Tele. It plays nice, but it has needed some work. The pickups were sunk really low for where I like them, and I've had to get some frets reseated as I was getting buzzing on the first string. For a brand new guitar that cost me the better part of 2 grand, I expected more from Kramer in that department. Another friend of mine has the red one and his was fine right out of the box, and he's about as pro a player as they come. I'm a bit mystified why they put coil splitting on the middle pickup instead of the neck pickup. I had my tech change that. Also kinda wish it had 24 frets, but whatev. Haha. Looks great, plays nice (now), sounds great and the Floyd is solid. I am happy I got it, despite the growing pains.

This is my second newer generation Kramer, when I got the first one, a Baratta Special (279$ guitar) she came out of the box ready to go. The setup, fretwork, intonation, everything was perfect, it was actually almost in tune so I was expecting the same level of craftsmanship and attention to details on the much more expensive Jersey Star and I was a bit disappointed. Both guitars were in the original unopened box direct from the distributor and the cheaper one was perfect but the Star needed a bit of additional work. A fret polish, a light sanding of the neck, the volume pot needed lubricating and the intonation was way off. I kept the guitar since the wait time for a replacement was way too long but I have to say that once I got those little things taken care of, this is one amazing guitar. The neck is fast and comfortable, the Floyd rose 1000 is great and stable, the Seymour Duncan combination of pickups is just great and makes it a very versatile instrument and the elliptical C neck profile is amazingly comfortable and fast. A narrower nut makes it extremely easy to fret chords even with the 16’’ radius. A true 80’s style shredder guitar. In the end, I have to say that even with the bit of work I had to do on it out of the box, it quickly became my favourite guitar and I will be ordering the candy apple red one shortly.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
