Hey Cory, that's awesome!  I just got my Focus 6000 back the other day.  Sold it to a friend a few months ago, ended up regretting it, so I traded him another guitar to get it back, lol.

Lucky man, getting your Christmas present early eh? I suppose, though, it was too difficult to hide it from you.

6000's are great. what color was yours again? wasen't a really light color like mine?  
what pickups did yours have in it when you got it? mine has the stock pups and they are kinda microphonic, lol but the bridge pup doesnt sound to bad.

Mine is that fugly off-white, cream-ish color.  It's probably getting a refin (black body with Lynch Bengal graphic in neon green!)

Mine is actually kind of a Frankenstein, as I bought just the neck & body originally, and added the rest.  Currently, it's got a Floyd copy from my old LTD (really good one, too), an EMG 81 in the bridge, and a dead single in the neck.

the guitar is a Kramer focus 6000. all the Kramer Focus guitars were made in Japan in the 80's and some in the early 90's. I believe now that mine is an 86' so its the same age I am.

It's worth adding that they were made by ESP.

yes, good Point. they were made for Kramer by ESP. I guess later on a lot of Kramer's necks and bodies were built by ESP.
