This is a NO RESERVE auction- Bid to win but please only do so if yo are prepared to pay for your purchase.Here is THE REAL DEAL- a REAL vintage, Made in Hoboken New Jersey Guild Starfire II- This is the green "Emerald Fire" model. Super rare in it's original form, but so desirable that they made a new made in Korea version- and the reissue is $1200!Tough to find these ALL ORIGINAL and untouched. Everyting is there and unchanged- The original Guild humbuckers, the tuneomatic bridge and rosewood base, the original Guild Harp tailpiece, the Tophat Guild knobs, even the original Guild Stairstep Pickguard is original 1965 vintage- nothing repro.This is among the nicest Emerald fires I have seen- no neck set, no peghead break, no major fingerboard wear- even the frets have very little wear. A true "Under The Bed" classic!The two Guild humbuckers sound great- I actually prefer the sound of this era Starfire to my own 64 ES-335. Comes in a Guild Hardhsell case. Due to the size international shipping can be expensive, but for USA I have a great rate on insured Fedex shipping!
