'60s vibe with rich sound and feel.

From the jangle of the Byrds to the psychedelia of Jefferson Airplane to countless other acts, many sounds of the '60s were underpinned by the deep and indispensable sound of the Starfire Bass, and players can now enjoy that rich sound and feel once again. Guild's new Starfire Bass has it all-the extra-thin semi-hollow body, the elegant double-cutaway design, a single powerful Bi-Sonic pickup, the classic Cherry Red finish and a great deal more. The welcome return of a true Guild classic.

Features

Laminated mahogany body
3-piece neck with rosewood fretboard and 21 jumbo frets
