Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Guild’s Starfire I SC pairs a single-cut, 2-inch hollow body with a bridge block intended to increase bridge stability. Its arched laminated maple body is described with airy hollow-body character, bright overtones and pronounced lows. A 24.75-inch scale and thin U neck profile give the instrument a fast, smooth playing feel, while HB-2 Alnico II humbuckers provide the main voice. Use the push-pull coil split to access single-coil tones from either pickup when a different pickup character suits the part.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players wanting hollow-body character with the added bridge stability of the internal bridge block.
- Switching between the HB-2 humbuckers and single-coil tones from either pickup.
- Players who prefer a 24.75-inch scale and a modern thin U neck profile.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require a case or gig bag to be included with the guitar.
- Left-handed players, as this model is specified as right handed.
