“We’re proud to introduce the new Kramer Volante—built for players who demand top-tier tone, feel, and versatility across every genre or style of music,” said Kramer Product Manager Aljon Go.
“Featuring all-new USA-made pickups developed with the Gibson Pickup Shop and a re-engineered neck joint for unmatched stability, tone, and sustain, the Volante is performance-ready from the first note. This is the guitar you’ll pick up once—and never want to put down.”
