Custom Kraft Ambassador
. . . en gammel amerikaner fra ca 1964, bygget hos Supro/Valco. Guitaren er i god og meget spilbar stand. Slagpladens hjørner mangler, men jeg har ikke nænnet at lave en ny slagplade til den. Guitaren ser ud til at være i original stand.
Jeg har klippet lidt på nettet om firmaet bag Custom Kraft guitarerne:
St. Louis Music is a long established musical instrument distributor (rather than manufacturer), founded in 1922 by Bernard Kornblum as an importer of German violins. By the 1950s St. Louis Music were distributingng Magnatone lap steel guitars as well as steels made by Harmony, Kay, Alamo, Supro and Rickenbacker.
By 1963 St. Louis Music were distributing solid body electric guitars including Custom Kraft Ambassadors produced by Valco and the Custom Kraft Golden Regent and Silver Caravelle both made by Kay.
From around 1968 onwards St. Louis Music concentrated on distributing other brands including Apollo, Electra, typically made in Japan.
