FAME Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary - Exclusive electric guitar in Stonewashed Charcoal Gloss

The Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Charcoal Gloss is a strictly limited special model issued by Fame to mark the brand’s 20th anniversary. It features premium tonewoods, modern all-round specifications, and exceptional playing comfort. The slim mahogany body with an elegant poplar burl top is not only visually striking, but also provides a comfortable playing position, with generous cutaways allowing unrestricted access across the entire neck. The neck is made from mahogany and traditionally set, with a flat D profile that sits comfortably in the hand, so that every riff or lick on the ebony fingerboard comes naturally. At the amplifier, the proven combination of a Seymour Duncan SH-2n Jazz in the neck and a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB at the bridge delivers versatile sounds from pop and blues to rock. The coil-split function further expands tonal possibilities with authentic single-coil sounds. The integrated GraphTech Ghost piezo pickup system provides first-class acoustic guitar tones, offering virtually unlimited tonal variety and musical expression. A Tune-o-Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece and precise Gotoh locking tuners complete the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Charcoal Gloss.

High playability and careful wood selection

The Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl is crafted by experienced European luthiers and impresses with its careful wood selection and flawless workmanship. The body is made from khaya mahogany with a poplar burl top, whose unique grain is skillfully highlighted by the finish. An elegant detail is the sharply contoured top with a recess in the cutaway, ensuring unhindered playability across all positions. The sapele mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand thanks to its perfectly proportioned D profile, making every note on the ebony fingerboard feel effortless.

FAME Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Charcoal Gloss #25071668 Pickups
With two Seymour Duncan humbuckers and a piezo pickup system in the bridge, the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl delivers versatile sounds.

Seymour Duncan humbucker for sounds between Blues and rock

Thanks to its versatile pickup configuration, the Fame Forum IV Modern delivers outstanding tonal flexibility. A Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB at the bridge and an SH-2n Jazz at the neck form a proven humbucker pair capable of covering blues, pop, rock, and even metal. The bridge pickup impresses with high output and focused mids, while the neck pickup provides warm vintage tones with long sustain. The coil-split circuit adds authentic single-coil sounds, offering the classic bell-like clarity and dynamic response.

The front volume control is designed as a push/pull pot and activates the piezo. The humbuckers can be split into single coils using the mini switch.

Piezo pickup system

In addition to the magnetic pickups, the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary features a GraphTech Ghost piezo system integrated into the bridge with an active preamp. Activated via a pull on the front volume control, it delivers realistic acoustic guitar tones with bright highs and natural attack. The piezo volume can be adjusted using the rear potentiometer, allowing seamless blending with the magnetic Seymour Duncan pickups.

Strings are guided over a GraphTech Resomax Tune-O-Matic bridge with graphite string savers that accommodate the Ghost piezo elements, then anchored by a traditional stopbar tailpiece. A Black TUSQ nut and precise Gotoh locking tuners on the headstock ensure perfect tuning stability, completing the premium setup.

Excerpt: Otherwise, perfection down to the last detail. The unlacquered 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 plus points. Last but not least, the sound of both guitars is absolutely convincing and, thanks to their very good resonance characteristics, excellent dynamics and stable Sustain, they can also be used for a wide range of different musical genres.
