No Need to Fret About the Ergonomics of your Guitar

Monday July 3, 2006
Gary Kramer Guitars has just released the Tomcat, the first in a line of guitars that feature some nifty ergonomic features. The patented "Delta Wing" design has a shape designed for better balance while standing and better access to the upper register of the fret board. It also provides forearm support for the picking hand and an integrated leg rest provides better posture and support while sitting.

These features are a welcome addition. And although they do not address every ergonomic issue a guitarist has they do show the importance of ergonomics for the musician.
