Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. No further work was required.

Feel the pulse of rock and roll with this beautiful Guild Starfire II Bass from the Newark St. Collection! Its stunning Pelham Blue finish and semi-hollow mahogany body give it a presence that's both classic and cool. The short-scale neck, crafted from a three-piece mahogany/maple blend, offers an effortless playing experience, while dual BiSonic pickups deliver a tone that is deep, dynamic, and full of vintage character. This is more than just an instrument; it's a rock-solid investment that has been professionally set up to ensure it plays like a dream. Every note, from the lowest thunderous rumble to the brightest pop, rings true. This bass is ready for its next great performance—and a truly discerning player!
