Plus Kate hasn't got back to me yet, so technically both options are still open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t find much info on them tho 🤔 This is what I recall,from having the Kramer catalog on my wall at 13 years old 😆 They were made in Japan! (1&2 maybe 3&4 poss Korea) 4 models Forum 1- neck through,Carved body, EMG pickups and pre, Spector Bridge, shark inlays (effectively MIJ pointy Spector) My dream pointy bass Forum 2- same but bolt on and flat body/top Forum 3 - Neck through, Flat body,Spector branded pickups and preamp (As per the Korean Spector NS2a) and spector Bridge, diamond inlays . Available in a few garish 80s colours. Forum 4- same but bolt on Deep cutaways on all 4, and lots of wacky colours, I've never seen one in the flesh, only the guitars when I was a kid. I'd love a Forum 1 in white 😍 Edited February 5, 2023 by lee650 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare as anything. Can't believe I passed one up on here for £99 about 10 years ago, due to being brutally skint! Well, it had me wincing at the thought of getting poked in the eye by it, so I reckon it's pointy enough! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGBass Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 As pointy as I dared go in the 1980s. All points rounded tastefully to avoid having someones eye out. Still pointy enough though not to be able to stand up straight when leaning against a stack, or a wall etc. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the 30s had had electric guitars, this would have been one of them. The exact reverse of being ahead of its time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewisK1975 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I remember having an Ibanez Destroyer 2 bass back in the day, probably the 3rd / 4th Bass I ever owned. Seem to remember thinking it was actually pretty good but felt a little stupid playing it in public.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
