Semi-acoustic electric guitar GUILD Starfire VI (Kingswood Green)

Feel the luxurious spirit of rock and roll of the 60s!

The pinnacle of Guild's Starfire line, the Starfire VI is all glitz, glamor and great tone. This guitar features the iconic double-cutaway body shape with a solid spruce center block and unique LB-1 Little Bucker pickups - exact replicas of the scaled-down Guild humbuckers of the 1960s. The neck is made of three pieces of mahogany and maple with a vintage "soft U" profile, complemented by an ebony fingerboard inlaid with stunning V-blocks of natural mother-of-pearl and abalone. A signature Guild vibrato, a Tune-O-Matic bridge with an ebony base, and original Grover Sta-Tite pegs complete the picture.

Semi-hollow design

The semi-hollow slim-body design of the Starfire VI combines the advantages of solid-body and hollow-body electric guitars. The hollow wave maple "wings" give your sound more warmth and detail, and the solid spruce center block helps avoid the typical drawbacks of semi-acoustic electric guitars - buzzing and the risk of feedback when played at high volumes.

Comfortable three-part mahogany and maple neck

Multi-piece frets are much stronger and stiffer than solid frets, and this design is also very resistant to twisting and warping over the years. The vintage Soft U-profile of the neck rests gently in the hand, guaranteeing exceptional playing comfort.

Signature Little Bucker humbuckers

The Guild Starfire VI is equipped with a pair of scaled-down LB-1 "Little Bucker" humbuckers. These pickups were developed in the 1960s as an alternative to singles (single-coil pickups). The Little Bucker's tonal character is somewhat of a cross between a traditional single and a vintage PAF humbucker, offering a brighter attack and more ring than the PAF, but a noticeably tighter and warmer tone than the singles. Add to that a three-way switch, individual volume and tone controls for each sensor, and a separate master volume control, and you'll understand just how great the Starfire VI can sound, regardless of the music genre!

Signature Guild tremolo

The signature Guild Vibrato Tailpiece tremolo fitted to the Starfire VI provides a truly expressive and fully controlled expression. From wailing fiery rockabilly solos to flowing waves of ghostly psychedelic chords - with Guild's signature vibrato you can reveal all the tonal nuances of this guitar and express your own musical emotions!
