Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to present this Guild Starfire III w/ Bigsby! This most recent version of the Starfire is a testament to the fact that Guild has been perfecting the thin hollow body design for generations. The sounds you can get out of this guitar are perfect for the rocker who's looking for something other than the same solid body design everyone's used for years. Play this guitar through a clean amp setting, roll the tone back and you've got a perfect jazz box. Add a touch of grit, and the guitar thickens up into a snarling blues machine. The neck on this guitar is big and round without being so large that it slows you down. The body style is comfortable and you'll appreciate the light weight after your next multi-hour practice session or gig. This is a great hollow body from a company that's been dialing in the design for years.
Item Details
This Guild Starfire III features an arched laminated mahogany top with laminated mahogany back and sides. At 1.94" body depth, it's thinner than most hollow bodies. The neck is a vintage soft U shape and has a rosewood fretboard with 20 frets and a 9.45" radius. Two Guild Anti-Hum Dual Coil pickups cover wide sonic ground. The bone nut and Grover Sta-Tite tuners create tuning stability and precision, even after you abuse the strings with the Bigsby. Other features include an opaque plexi pickguard, Guild Adjusto-Matic bridge, and nickel plated hardware. The thin hollow body design with features like these usually runs well over $1,500. We won't have these around for long.
