A striking Kramer Imperial FR-404S finished in Metallic Silver and presented in very good condition, showing some light cosmetic signs of previous use while remaining in full working order.
Bearing serial number S01090010, this example dates to approximately September 2001 and was manufactured in Korea during Kramer’s MusicYo era.
The Imperial FR-404S takes the classic Explorer-style body shape and gives it a distinctly early-2000s Kramer treatment, combining a solid alder body with a fast bolt-on maple neck, 24-fret rosewood fingerboard and a double-locking Floyd Rose-style tremolo.
A pair of original Kramer Quad Rail humbuckers provide a powerful, high-output sound particularly well suited to rock and heavier styles. The master tone control features push/pull coil tapping, adding extra tonal versatility alongside the standard three-way pickup selector.
Black hardware, Gotoh machine heads and the pointed six-in-line Kramer headstock complete the aggressive look.
Our in-house technicians have fully inspected and set up the guitar, ensuring it is ready to play.
Please note: There are two small cracks in the finish near the heel of the neck. These are cosmetic only and do not affect the guitar’s structure, stability or playability.
A shaped padded gig bag is included. The bag itself is quite worn from previous use, but importantly it is designed to accommodate the guitar’s larger Explorer-style body shape and remains useful for storage and transport.
