Guild Starfire IV ST (Cherry Red) Overview
The Guild Starfire IV ST is similar in almost every way to the Starfire IV, but it has a stopbar tailpiece, rather than the Guild harp tailpiece of the original. Although less ornate, this tailpiece does offer slightly more sustain and improves intonation. The Starfire IV ST's mahogany body gives it great sustain, while the mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard is a pleasure to play thanks to its soft U profile. A pair of Guild LB-1 mini humbuckers sound great through overdrive and clean in equal measure. If you're looking for a doublecut semi that's a bit different to the usual suspects, look no further than the Guild Starfire IV ST.Call GAK now for product info, advice and the Best Prices - 01273 665400
