any help will be much apreciated by me and others with the same question
It is difficult to tell you how to adjust the trem without knowing exactly what you have. Your best bet (unless you have a lot of free time on your hands) would be to take it into a reputable guitar shop and have a tech set it up properly for you. If possible, you should watch him/her set it up as well. If you haven't had a guitar with a trem, you will find that most are unstable and don't stay in tune real well. I don't know what trem the 1985 Kramer had on it (possibly a Floyd Rose?). Again, spend a few bucks and have a tech set it up and make sure you pay attention. If you don't set one up correctly, you will have a heck of a time tuning your guitar and the first time you use the trem, it will wreck the tuning again. I finally gave up on trems (both Fender and Ibanez) and went back to hard tails. They never go out of tune. Good luck and take care of that guitar.
