In 1985-86, Kramer began it’s relationship with Danny Ferrington, the Nashville-based luthier who built several guitars for celebrities and, himself had became a reputable reputation for new designs of electric/acoustic guitars. Ferrington designed all of the models of the Kramer Ferrington lines. New for late 87 was the KFB-1& KFB2 Basses. The KFB-1 was the deluxe model, offered with a bound body, neck & headstock & diamond Inlays with a Kramer Inlay also included on the Fret Board at the 21st fret. The KFB-2 were simpler in design, offered with dot Inlay only. These were a real 80’s Statement basses & have a unique & very cool look, with the angled headstock & asymmetrical body design.

This Lovely Cherry Red Beasty is factory fitted with its transducer bridge saddle pickup & 3 band active tone booster EQ & really packs a punch, she is currently fitted with black nylon coated flatwound strings. Cosmetically, she is in excellent, unmarked condition with no scratches, buckle rash or fretwear at all. However, as is common with these basses, over it’s 30+ years, the body has a developed a slight undulation around the table & sound hole, this is likely due to a lack of body bracing in the design & nearly all these basses have this going on! It will not progress & does not in anyway affect the action, playability or sound of the bass. Her neck is perfectly straight & she has a really great action. She comes in a purpose made professional flight case.
