The person behind the rig
At forty,
I decided
to shred.
I’m Saeid. I fell in love with neo-classical guitar tone and decided to become a shredder. That journey became ShredatForty — and led me to build Rig 1988.

The tone that became Rig 1988.
I love that late-eighties neo-classical sound: the singing sustain, the bite, and the way a lead guitar can carry a melody.
I built Rig 1988 around the tone I wanted to play. ShredatForty is where I share the playing, the practice and the journey behind it.
If you love that sound too, welcome. Pick up your guitar and give the rig a try.
