60s Guild Starfire I sighting
« on: February 22, 2008, 11:28:37 PM »
I stopped into South Austin Music Friday afternoon and along with the usual assortment of low price Chinese imports, there was a late 60s Guild Starfire I bass with the one Hagstrom Bisonic pickup in the bridge position. It's in pretty good shape, missing the treble side finger rest and the nitro has been eaten in places (probably by a chemical reaction with a case or gig bag). It's $1699 with gig bag (no original case). I have no idea if that's low, high or about right, but I wanted to pass it along in case anyone's interested. Unfortunately their website is minimal and they don't have a stock list online.

I'm not really a Guild fan but this one sure sounded nice and vintage-y with Roto tapewounds through a Roland cube amp.
