The Guild Starfire IV 12-ST is a distinctive 12-string semi-hollow electric guitar combining rich octave shimmer with the warm, resonant character of Guild’s classic Starfire design.

Finished in Cherry Red, it features laminated mahogany construction with a solid centre block, a 3-piece mahogany/maple set neck, ebony fingerboard and a pair of Guild LB-1 Little Bucker humbuckers.

Presented in Very Good Condition, this example weighs 7.6 lbs and includes a hardcase.

12-String Semi-Hollow Tone

The 12-string setup delivers the wide, chiming and naturally chorused sound associated with classic electric 12-strings.

Its semi-hollow construction adds warmth and resonance, while the centre block helps retain sustain and control at higher volumes.

Guild LB-1 Little Buckers

A pair of Guild LB-1 Little Bucker humbuckers provide clarity and definition while retaining enough warmth to suit the semi-hollow construction.

They work especially well with the complex harmonic character of a 12-string, keeping chords articulate and individual notes clear.
