Guild Starfire I Bass Cherry Red

Featuring a slimmed down, 2.4” body thickness, inward-shifted neck, short 30 ¾” scale length and a 1 ½” nut width, the Guild Starfire I Bass is a compact and accessible option for younger players, or those who want more freedom on stage.

Guild’s own BC-1 BiCoil pickups adorn the bass, complete with hum resistant nickel covers and Alnico 5 magnet construction. Combined with the woody nature of semi-hollowbody tone and the volume and tone control, these pickups allow the player to dial in anything from modern, cutting bass tones to wooly, round, vintage tones. Pull up on the Volume Knob to reveal the push-pull vintage switch—a feature that adds presence with rolled down low frequencies, reminiscent of the parallel pickup configuration on vintage Hollowbody basses.
