“… rock solid guitarist …”
There’s lots of goofy text in this Kramer ad circumlocuting the fact that Mick Mars and Mötley Crüe were supporting Dr. Feelgood at the time. Taken from Guitar for the Practicing Musician, March 1990.

“Peace Through Music”
This Kramer ad refers to the Moscow Music Peace Festival, a two day event in August 1989 that featured Cinderella, Gorky Park, Skid Row, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Scorpions, and Ozzy Osbourne. Only the last two on that list are not represented here, owing to their lack of Kramer endorsers, of course. Left to right we have:
Jan Ianenkov (Gorky Park)
Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue)
Alexei Belov (Gorky Park)
“Snake” Sabo (Skid Row)
Jeff LeBar (sic) (Cinderella)
Mick Mars (Motley Crue)
Sasha Minkov (Gorky Park)
Scotty Hill (Skid Row)
Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi)
Rachel Bolan (Skid Row)
From Guitar for the Practicing Musician, January 1990.

Ohhhhh, yeah. Here’s Motley Crue’s Mick Mars 26 years ago when he was 34. Yeah, the math is amazing. The Theatre of Pain Mars is rocking a Kahler-equipped B.C. Rich Warlock. And serious leather. Taken from Guitar for the Practicing Musician, March 1985.
