The Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Blue Gloss celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Fame brand as a strictly limited special edition, offering high-quality premium tonewoods, modern features, and exceptional playability. The slim mahogany body with a striking poplar burl top not only catches the eye with its beautiful grain but also offers a comfortable playing position. The generous cutaways ensure unhindered access to the entire neck. The neck, made from mahogany and traditionally glued, features a flat "D" profile that sits comfortably in the hand, allowing every riff or lick on the ebony fingerboard to come naturally. On the amp, the proven combination of a Seymour Duncan SH-2n Jazz in the neck position and a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB in the bridge delivers versatile tones ranging from pop and blues to rock. Additionally, the coil-split function unlocks authentic single-coil sounds. An integrated piezo pickup system delivers first-class acoustic guitar tones, expanding the tonal range and possibilities for musical expression. The Tune-O-Matic bridge with a stopbar tailpiece and precise Gotoh locking tuners complete the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Blue Gloss.
Crafted by experienced luthiers in Europe, the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl impresses with its careful selection of woods and flawless workmanship. The body is made from khaya mahogany with a poplar burl top, whose unique grain is beautifully highlighted by the finish. A standout feature is the sharply contoured curvature of the top, with a recessed cutaway for unhindered playability across all positions. The sapele mahogany neck features a perfectly proportioned "D" profile that sits comfortably in the hand, making every note on the ebony fingerboard feel effortless.
Thanks to the versatile pickup configuration, the Fame Forum IV Modern offers incredible flexibility in sound. With a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan SH-2n Jazz in the neck, this proven humbucker pair delivers the right tone for everything from blues and pop to rock and even metal. The bridge pickup boasts high output and sharp, focused mids, while the neck pickup delivers endless sustain with a warm, vintage voice. The coil-split circuit also provides authentic single-coil sounds with a clear, bell-like tone.
In addition to the magnetic pickups, the Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary is equipped with a GraphTech Ghost piezo pickup system integrated into the bridge with an active preamp. Activated by pulling the front volume control, the system offers rich, authentic acoustic guitar tones with brilliant highs and characteristic attack. The piezo system's volume can be adjusted via the rear potentiometer, allowing you to blend it with the Seymour Duncan pickups for unique mixed tones.
The Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl also shines with its premium hardware, ensuring reliable performance on stage or in the studio. The strings pass over the GraphTech Resomax Tune-O-Matic bridge, which features graphite string savers that accommodate the Ghost piezo elements. The Black TUSQ nut, combined with precise Gotoh locking tuners on the headstock, further enhances tuning stability and overall reliability.
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
Fame Forum IV Modern 20th Anniversary Burl Stonewashed Blue Gloss #25101705amazing instrument sounds fantastic has a great feel looks as good as much more expensive guitars but the guitar was poorly shipped the cardboard was very soft no gig bag was included & there was a chip on the top of the headstock you did refund 50.00 dollars for that & the gig bag arrived today I love the guitar but how it got sent the way it did I'm surprised there wasn't more damage.i still give hot a top rating because the guitar is that good & you addressed the issue quickly
My Fame Forum IV modern 20th anniversary (color: burl stonewashed blue) arrived yesterday. My first impression: top notch quality for an extremely good price. I also own a PRS and this Fame guitar literally compares to a PRS core guitar in my honest first impression.
At first, I was hesitant to buy a Fame guitar because the brand is unknown here in the Netherlands. But I thought “what the heck” and gave it a try, after seeing the good reviews. Well, the looks are amazing, the fretwork excellent, it sounds great and plays very well. Build quality is top notch. And this “made in Europe”, at 1/3 of the price of a PRS core.
Some small suggestions:
1) no one is waiting for the “20 years” inlay on the fretboard. Normal dots are a bit more convenient.
2) I advise a version with tremolo and tone control, a few more colors, and a similar model but with lower output pickups. That will cover 90% of the needs of guitarists. For sure I would buy another one then
Extremely happy!! Best quality guitar I've had, I like it better than the PRS I had previously. Shipping was fast to Texas, arrived in about 2 weeks.
I've REALLY gelled with this guitar. First thing first the wood on this guitar and the craftsmanship are TOP notch. I was not impressed with the electronics the Duncan pickups, while a classic combo, didn't suit my needs. I put shur thornbuckers in right away. While the piezo pickups are graphtech the preamp is not, I changed that out as well. I also added a tone control and removed the piezo switch for a piezo volume (can be done with a mini pot). As you can see I'm super particular about my electronics so I don't fault fame, especially at this price. I will be buy another one! But, can we get a few more color options for the semi hollow!???
