I reviewed the Star Bass and in my humble opinion one of the better basses I reviewed. The normal Star has the same singlecoils and the new singlecut has the humbuckers.
Within a couple of months I reviewed the long scale Star and the long scale Gretsch White Falcon Bass. Both sound very tight, very HUGE. I think the Star is an awesome combination of oldskool 60s sounds, the tightness of a long scale bass and also with a bit of Warwick growl.
