Fame Forum Classic Satin Blue - reduced to £550!!!

fosk

I am not sure whether to let this go, I've thought about it a couple of times, then played it and decided against - but I really have too many.

It plays better than guitars 2 or 3 times the cost - these are made by the same company who make Spector Euro basses etc which cost a couple of grand (in Czech Rep), so high quality - they used to be made by Mayones (in Poland).

The satin finish really sets this apart from my other Fame, but I've gotten attached to that one.

It's as new, barely touched, and comes with a gig bag.

@fosk - pics aren't showing.  Just a load of icons.

fosk

Showing okay for me?

Anyone else happen to see or not see?!

Edited the newer post to do it the other way the forum accepts.

The second post is showing OK for me on Android, but completely blank on desktop.  (Chrome on both.)

I can see the photos

It's fine on my Mac and iPhone, so hopefully it will work for most people!  Message me if anyone does want to see and can't though!

It looks like the baby from a coupling between a PRS and a bass.

fosk

A bass?  Strange!

fosk

Bump, with a nice photo.

fosk

Bump!

fosk

Bump after a year! Haha.

fosk

Might as well bump.

Best value for money guitar available, and that's at the new retail cost.

When my Forum 1V arrived I was genuinely amazed (and very happy) how good it was. I am a big PRS fan and have owned dozens of them from SE's to Private Stock, this Fame gives them all a bloody good run for the money.

Yeah, they really are, for me, the best value guitars you can buy as I said.

Which is why I've not really pushed too hard to sell this one!

I don't really the money from selling it, but it does feel a shame to have so many unused guitars.

fosk

1 week of final sale price, then it's removed forever.

Like new!  £550!

These are £863 new.

fosk

Would trade for a MIJ Les Paul of some kind, or a Tele.

I had a Spector Euro bass and the quality was outstanding so I am sure their guitars are similarly good.  GLWTS

Could be interested in a posted price? Unfortunately too far for pickup
