The Starfire I DC is based on a classic Guild design. Its arched centre-block construction delivers the airy, resonant quality that Guild hollowbody electric guitars are known for, while helping you avoid unpleasant feedback when playing at high volume. The HB-2 alnico humbuckers fitted to the Starfire I DC are built on Guild's iconic HB-1’s – they offer a warmth and bite comparable to classic PAF pickups. What's more, the electronics feature push-pull pots that let you run the humbuckers in single-coil mode. That gives you access to crisp, quacky single-coil tones too – perfect for blues, surf, country and rock.

Withdrawal termsDescription
A solid center block, hollowbody construction - hollow on both sides but with a solid core running through the center of the electric guitar - gives the Starfire I DC the classic Guild tone and response without limiting the electric guitar's versatility. Together with its quality wood, comfortable neck, sturdy hardtail bridge and modern electronics, the Starfire I DC has everything it takes to be a professional instrument at a very reasonable price.
With its HB-2 alnico humbuckers, the Guild Starfire I DC is capable of delivering a wide range of tones. These pickups deliver fullness and exceptionally long sustain while retaining the warmth that classic PAF pickups possess. And the push-pull coil split allows you to dramatically change the tone, giving you access to the crystal-clear and sparkling single-coil sound without having to modify the electric guitar. Plug the Guild Starfire I DC into a medium-gain amplifier, and you get a dynamic and rich harmonic bite. Or park the Starfire I DC in front of a high-gain amplifier, and you get otherworldly sustain that is tailor-made for blues and rock solos. Guild's HB-2s are the ideal successors to the classic HB-1s that Guild has used for over 60 years. And with the addition of their coil-split circuitry, the Starfire I is an excellent all-in-one electric guitar.
