Wow!
I'm sure there aren't too many of those over in France!
Nice Bass. How did you come across it?

It was in "Pigalle", when i began bass.
i was alone to play, then i test this in shop ... and it was the revelation...
then after my style change, and with it, it's difficult to play "funk"...
"she" is for sale....800 euros.
(sorry fo my english...)

hey I just bought a Kramer AeroStar.
wow what a beauty this thing is...zero fret that's chipped on all 4 grooves, a pickup that is more microphonic than my SM58, neck that is on an angle in the pocket so the e string has like 2 millimeters before it's off the board, open gear tuners that are so hard to turn I'll need some popeye spinach before I need to tune it up...
oh... did I mention I actually LIKE THIS THING?
--it did intonate, and does play --hehehe

at least it is not that uglier silver body one I bastardized the neck from and has a matching headstock 
Or like Boltgun metal or something like that.
The White one actually looks rather nice.... in a stylistic way

if the white one had the small tuners I would have already tossed the black ones on it..I'm sill gonna throw the black bridge and knobs on it when I find a nut and change the strings
i just made a new nut for my forum three when it broke <- BUSTED
pretty easy job with a straight edge ruler and fine diamond files.

XL-24 (or is it XL-8?), s/n A2580, paint: natural, aluminum neck, had it about 8 years.
Also had an original DMZ6000B purchased in 1979 or 1980 (I forget), left it under my bed for 15 years, pulled it out and the electronics were dead. Replaced DMZs with Bartolini P/J and pre. Then sold it a few years later after I went to 5 strings.

I found this add in a local auctions site... i've no idea what it is... it's a lefty, but it's cheap!
about 150 dollars, probably could get it for 100. It's a lefty, though...
you guys have any ideas what it is?

Only think KRAMER about that is the logo that was added.
that's what i thought... too bad.
tell the guy it's worth 50 bucks as someone faked the Kramer logo, and it's nothing but a generic POS and you will still buy it for parts .

well, i just asked, the seller claims he bought the bass new... any possibilities of it being legit?
No. I have NEVER seen ANY Kramer Bass that looks anything like that.
Quite possible some american bought generic chinese basses, and stuck KRAMER logos on then when kramer was out of business, and shipped them fora profit to argentina.
Wow.... those Kramer Warwick types are a first. Going to have to say fake... even if they may not be necessarily BAD.
