Guild Starfire III Dynasonic Hollowbody Guitar

Description: A Throwback to the Starfire III’s Early-’60s Start Guild’s Starfire III harkens back to the model’s early 1960s inception, long before the model ever featured Guild’s iconic chromed-out humbuckers. Instead, this guitar’s warm and rich-sounding mahogany hollowbody boasts a set of classic single-coil Dynasonic pickups. What do they sound like? Think the P-90’s more polite cousin — Dynasonics produce a clear, hi-fi-like charm that excels in rockabilly, early rock ’n’ roll, and bluesy applications. Naturally, these vintage-style pickups are paired with a vintage-style Guild Vibrato tailpiece, complete with a floating Tune-o-matic-style bridge for spot-on intonation. It’s all rounded out with a robust Vintage Soft U mahogany neck, a sleek ebony fingerboard, and a bend-friendly 9.5-inch radius. Finally, we’d be remiss not to mention this guitar’s eye-catching Scarlet Red hue — a Starfire III finish that you can only get at Sweetwater!A mahogany-bodied masterpiece For the guitarist who values resonance and Sweetwater is an Authorized Guild Dealer Genuine Open Box Item Sweetwater's 2-year warranty and 55 point inspection Guild Starfire III Dynasonic Hollowbody Guitar - Scarlet Red, Sweetwater Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body, Mahogany Neck, Ebony Fingerboard, Guild Vibrato, and 2 Single-coil Pickups - Scarlet Red A Throwback to the Starfire III’s Early-’60s Start Guild’s Starfire III harkens back to the model’s early 1960s inception, long before the model ever featured Guild’s iconic chromed-out humbuckers.
