GUILD ITALIA STARFIRE I BASS CHERRY

'An iconic shape at an affordable price, Guild's Starfire I Bass is a modern adaptation of the traditional Starfire Bass platform, offering the must-have features on a modern Hollowbody bass. Featuring a slim 2.4" body thickness, inwardly shifted neck, short scale length of 30 ¾” and a nut width of 1 ½”, the Starfire I Bass is a compact and affordable option for younger players or those who want more freedom on stage. Stable tuning and easy adjustment are provided by the Tune-o-matic bass bridge, and the harp-like tailpiece adds a touch of Guild's classic aesthetic, making the bass a descendant of its vertical ancestors. Guild's BC-1 BiCoil pickups adorn the bass, complete with nickel-resistant covers and Alnico 5 magnet construction. Combined with the woody nature of the semi-hollowbody tone and volume and tone control, these pickups allow the musician to dial in anything from modern, sharp bass tones to wooly, round, and vintage tones. Raising the volume knob reveals the vintage push-pull switch, a feature that adds presence with the low frequencies lowered, reminiscent of the parallel pickup configuration on vintage Hollowbody basses. Available with maple top, back and sides in vintage walnut, and with mahogany top, back and sides in cherry red. Left-handed version also available in Cherry Red. All in a perfectly glossy polyurethane finish. '
