This is a VINTAGE 1960's STARFIRE guitar. It was made by GALANTI. It is very similar to the GRAND PRIX Model V4. This ELECTRIC GUITAR has 4 PU's and was made in ITALY. The finish has typical dings, bumps, scratches and HEAVY checking. Includes the non-original Boblen (Made in Canada) case you see in the pictures. Fits like a glove.
I have completely serviced the guitar... Cleaned the body and neck, cleaned and conditioned the fingerboard, cleaned the controls (no scratchy pots), cleaned and polished the frets, adjusted the bridge and intonation, set up with new DR 9-42 gauge strings. I replace the nut and supplied a period correct tremolo arm. It has a couple of bent tuners. It may need some minor tweaking for your style of play and comfort, but for the most part ready to go.
Years ago, I read an article about or listing for this model of guitar. The author claimed there were only two of these four pickup versions known in the world. Well now there are three. I have sold thousands of guitars over the last 25 years. This one is from my personal collection. It is part of my estate.
The following is common sense stuff, but needs mentioned:
-If you have a concern with any item purchased, CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY by phone or email. I always offer a full refund of the purchase amount (less shipping). You should not have to live with something you are unhappy with for any reason. If you alter, modify, change or "repair" the item in anyway without my consent, you are accepting the item "as is", at the price paid.
-If you receive an item that has been damaged in shipping, CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY and save all the packaging. We will work through the claim together until things are right.
-I can ship almost anywhere, but free shipping or a fixed shipping price is for the contiguous 48 states ONLY. If you have a foreign address, use an APO, live in Alaska, Puerto Rico, etc., message me for a shipping price BEFORE you buy. Due to the cost and risk of shipping I do not accept returns from outside the US. Once the package is delivered to the carrier, the foreign buyer is responsible for the item, including but not limited to taxes, fees, customs issues, delays, damage, lose, duty, etc.
