What makes K-Tek K-Tek?

The company founder, Manfred Klemme, was a brilliant engineer with a creative mind to have form follow function. He combined that with his creativity to produce products that have been in extremely high demand for many years. K-Tek’s non-Stingray products are made in the U.S.A., from the cable in the poles, the graphite, the aluminum, the machining, and even the polymer for the shock mounts – we machine, process, assemble it all at our shop in Vista, California. K-Tek provides stellar customer service. We understand what it’s like working out there on location, and we strive to make sure our customers are taken care of. When you call, we answer the phone. When you email us we reply. No auto-attendants, automated phones systems or email bots! When we say we ship something, we actually ship it. We’ve been around for 20 years and we’re not planning to go anywhere. We aren’t going to make an awesome product and then vanish. We’ve always made products for Cine/Video production and we’ll continue to do so. After all, what good is a product if you can’t get a hold of the people who made it?
