Guild Newark Street Starfire II, first production run, never left our smoke free controlled climate home. Virtually mint condition, only marks are single non-visible screw holes under the tuners from trying Hipshot Ultralite tuners and a small crack in the master volume knob.
Weight is a comfortable 8 lbs. 12 oz. and is well balanced. The stock strap buttons have been replaced with Dunlop strap lock buttons. The original strap buttons are included. The strap portion of the locks are not.
The stock bridge has been replaced with a custom bridge consisting of 4 individual Hipshot Solo bridge pieces mounted on a heavy brass plate. This gives individual adjustments for height and centering for each string, more range to set intonation and more clarity and consistency to the tone. The bridge is mounted using the stock bridge screws, so it didn't require any mods to the bass to mount it. The original bridge is included.
Guild did a great job replicating the original Bisonic pickups giving clear, solid, full range sound. Please note that these are single coil pickups, so there can be hum in certain conditions. There is a volume and tone control for each pickup, a pickup selector switch and a master volume control.
The slim short scale neck makes the bass a breeze to play and the semi-hollow body gives a nice touch of woodiness to the tone.
