GUILD
STARFIRE I SC - ANTIQUE BURST
List Price: $760
The new
Starfire I family takes the iconic Starfire Double Cut and Single Cut body
shapes into the modern era with new models and colors. All models feature the
appointments any gigging or recording musicians requires, including a tried and
true Tune-o-matic bridge, premium Guild Vintage 18 open back tuners with 18:1
ratio, an easily accessible 12” radius Rosewood fretboard and thin U neck
profile, a traditional three way toggle switch with dedicated volume and tone
controls, and push-pull coil splitting for each pickup. An injection of rich,
vintage tone is provided by Guild’s own HB-2 Alnico II humbuckers featured on
all Starfire I models, giving these semi-hollow bodies a professional tone from
the start. Guild’s engineering team worked tirelessly to bring the classic
aesthetic and road-ready quality that has been synonymous with Guild to the new
competitively priced Starfire I platform. You will be totally amazed!
For those
looking for something a little extra, the Starfire I GVT comes equipped with a
Tune-o-matic bridge and Guild’s Vibrato Tailpiece for additional tonal
versatility.
