Description Guild Starfire IV Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard, Hardshell Case - Cherry Red Semi-hollow body. This marks the welcome return of a highly popular semi-hollow Guild classic, with a graceful double-cutaway thinline body and incomparable tone and feel. The original Starfire IV was prized by many guitarists from the mid-1960s onward as a distinctively rocking instrument, and its spirit and design pervade this new model. Other premium features include a rock-solid three-piece neck, special vintage-style LB-1 “Little Bucker” pickups and the classically brilliant Cherry Red. The Guild LB-1 “Little Bucker” was first offered in 1962 as an upgrade from single coil pickups. Tonally, it has a little more jangle then a traditional PAF humbucker. The resistance and inductance of these pickups sit comfortably between a typical single coil and typical humbucker – contributing to the airy nature of the LB-1 without compromising its warmth. The LB-1 has a unique footprint, placing it in-between a mini-bucker and a full size humbucker.Specificationsbody: Body Construction Semi-Hollowbody Body Top Arched Laminated Mahogany Body Back Arched Laminated Mahogany Body Sides Laminated Mahogany Body Shape Starfire™ IV Bracing Center Block Finish Gloss Polyurethane/ Cherry Red Body Depth Upper Bout 1 5/8″ (41 mm) Body Depth Lower Bout 1 3/4″ (44.45 mm) Body Length 18 1/4″ (464 mm) Body Width Lower Bout 16 3/8″ (416 mm) Body Width Upper Bout 11 3/4″ (298 mm) Overall Guitar Length 41 1/2″ (1055mm) Body Binding Ivory White with Black/White Purfling Purfling Black/Ivory White Soundhole/F-Holes Binding Unbound F Holes neck: Neck Material 3-Piece Mahogany/Maple/Mahogany Neck Shape Vintage Soft “U” Neck Finish Gloss Polyurethane Scale Length 24 3/4″ (628 mm) Nut Width 1 11/16″ (43 mm) Nut Material Bone Neck Binding 1-Ply Ivory White Fingerboard Material Indian Rosewood Fingerboard Radius 9 1/2″ (240 mm) Fingerboard Inlays Pearloid Dot # of Frets 22 Fret Size Narrow Jumbo Tuning Machines Grover® Sta-Tite™ Die-Cast Hardware Finish/Plating Nickel Plated Truss Rod Dual-Action Truss Rod Wrench 7mm Hex Truss Rod Wrench features: Bridge Guild® Tune-O-Matic with Rosewood Base Strings D’Addario® EXL115 Nickel Wound, Medium/Blues-Jazz Rock, (.011-.049 Gauges) Bridge Pickup LB-1 Neck Pickup LB-1 Pickup Configuration HH Pickup Switches 3-Position Blade: Position 1.
