Sign in to disble this ad
Here's a 1983 Kramer Focus 7000. The Focus series was made in Japan and the bass was only made for about a year. Quality as you would expect from Japan in the 80's. P pickups and stacked J pickups at the bridge. Great sounding and playing bass with tonal options.
This bass is in great condition considering its age. Some dings and scratches, but as you can see in the pictures, nothing severe. One small chip of note on the back right at the bottom edge. Everything works perfectly. Comes with gig bag. Pics are here: http://s134.photobucket.com/albums/q...0Focus%207000/ 
PRICE DROP!! $300 shipped CON US. Shipping to USA only. USPS Money Order preferred.

Not really interested in trades unless it's a L-2500. |

High quality hardware (great bridge especially!), super tight neck pocket, a rock solid example of Japanese craftsmanship. This really is a LOT of bass to your door for $350. |

I had one of these and sold it to my friend Steve Evans. He is a studio musician here in California and plays around the world, too. He owns about 40 basses - This is his favorite sounding Pbass !

All the hardware, and I believe the pickups are schaller. |
