An iconic shape at an affordable price.
The Guild Starfire I Bass is a compact and accessible option for younger players, or those who want more freedom when performing onstage. Stable tuning and easy adjustability are provided by the tune-o-matic bass bridge. The harp tailpiece adds a touch of Guild’s classic aesthetic, making this bass like its upright ancestors.
Adorning this bass are Guild’s own BC-1 BiCoil pickups, 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. This feature adds presence with rolled-down low frequencies, reminiscent of the parallel pickup configuration on vintage hollowbody basses.
The Guild Starfire 1 left-handed bass features a glossed polyurethane finish.
