Fame Forum IV Classic Stonewashed Grey Highgloss

Strong mahogany body & curly maple top.

The classic recipe of the Fame Forum IV Classic includes a two-piece body made of Khaya mahogany without weight relief. This features a strong profile and is glued to the Sapelli neck with long neck foot in a bombproof and sustain-rich way. Last but not least, the Fame Forum IV Classic has a two-piece curly maple top with unique flame, which makes each Fame Forum unique.

Seymour Duncan SH-2 & SH-4

With a pickup lineup from US market leader Seymour Duncan, the Fame Forum IV Classic features a flexible and powerful humbucker setup. A Seymour Duncan SH-2n Jazz in neck position reproduces warm leads and wide sounding Chords in a defined way, while the SH-4 JB Model humbucker at the bridge reproduces powerful and overtone-rich sounds with the proven midrange punch. Last but not least, both pickups can be switched to single coil operation via the Mini-Toggle-Switch between Volume and Tone controls.

Solid hardware

For professional use on stage and in Studio, the Fame Forum IV Classic is equipped with solid and reliable hardware. Robust premium tuners stand for durability and tuning stability, while a classic combination of Tune-o-Matic and Stopbar ultimately provides a resonant connection to the body and adjustment options for intonation and string action.

Excerpt: Otherwise perfection down to the details. The unvarnished satin surfaces convey an extremely pleasant feel, the ergonomics a high level of playing comfort. Schaller hardware, Seymour Duncan pickups and GraphTech ghost piezo bridge with corresponding Preamp - that's how you score points. Last but not least, both guitars have an absolutely convincing sound and, thanks to their very good vibration characteristics, excellent dynamics and stable Sustain, they serve a wide range of different musical genres.

Seymour Duncan USA pickup with coil split option.

The Fame Forum IV Classic P90 combines classic humbucker sounds for steamy riffs of the Blues to hard rock in bridge position and vocal, expressive neck sounds of the single coil in P90 format. The Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB humbucker, which has been tried and tested for 40 years now, operates in the classic Hot-Rod manner with increased Output and a well-resolved frequency spectrum, while the Seymour Duncan P90 Sopabar aptly complements the distinctive sound of the neck position with its pronounced high mids. The additional Mini Switch also provides a coil-split option for the bridge humbucker, which can also elicit softer sounds with attack-rich response from the Fame Forum IV Classic P90 if required.
