Guild Starfire I DC Semi-hollow Electric Guitar

Description: Mahogany-bodied Spin on Guild’s Classic Starfire I Inspired by Guild’s most iconic 1960s semi-hollowbody designs, the Starfire I DC defies traditional maple-bound construction for the depth and mellow tone of a mahogany body. This guitar’s arched center-block construction supplies the airy, resonant quality of some timeless Guild semi-hollow electrics, at the same time helping to neutralize squealing and squelching in a loud performance setting — quite an asset onstage, especially for high-octane rock music. Standard-sized HB-2 alnico humbuckers — which build off Guild’s iconic HB-1s — supply a warmth and bite that Sweetwater guitarists find compares favorably to the almighty PAFs. Not only that, but push-pull pots unlock a distinct single-coil chime that suits less raucous applications like blues, surf, country, and rock music superbly. It’s all topped off with a Guild-branded vibrato bridge built for expressive players.Split HB-2 humbuckers With its HB-2 alnico humbuckers, your Guild Starfire I DC Sweetwater is an Authorized Guild Dealer Genuine New Item Sweetwater's 2-year warranty and 55 point inspection Guild Starfire I DC Semi-hollow Electric Guitar - California Burst Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body, Mahogany Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard, Guild Vibrato, and 2 Humbucking Pickups - California Burst Mahogany-bodied Spin on Guild’s Classic Starfire I Inspired by Guild’s most iconic 1960s semi-hollowbody designs, the Starfire I DC defies traditional maple-bound construction for the depth and mellow tone of a mahogany body.
