Up for sale is a rare, high-end 1989 Kramer Forum II "American" Series bass in a stunning blue metallic (Candy Blue) finish.

This is a true player’s and collector's piece from the peak of Kramer's late-1980s Neptune, New Jersey era. The "American" series Forum II features a premium arched, offset double-cutaway body and a razor-sharp, bound ebony fingerboard crafted to elite specifications by ESP in Japan, then imported and assembled/finished at the Kramer facility in New Jersey.

This specific 1989 model captures the highest technical tier offered for the lineup, coming factory-equipped with active EMG pickups (one split P-style, one J-style) rather than the earlier passive options. The active electronics deliver incredible punch, clarity, and modern tone shaping.
