Its modern thin “U” shaped mahogany neck provides a smooth, fast feel, while its Indian rosewood fingerboard plays with a buttery-smooth response. Powering this guitar is a pair of Guild HB-2 humbuckers which offer a wide array of vintage and modern 12-string electric tones. These pickups can sling out everything from thick, crunchy rhythm tones to hot, spankin’ lead sounds, courtesy of the dual volume and tone controls, 3-way pickup selector, and push/pull coil split functionality.Inspired by the rockin’ guitars of yesteryear, the Guild Starfire I-12 is perfect for players who love the look and sound of old-school electric 12-strings but don’t want to pay the vintage mark-up.SpecsBody Type: Semi-hollowBody Shape: Starfire I Double CutawayBody Top: Arched MahoganySoundhole / F Holes Binding: Unbound F HolesTop Purfling Inlay: 2-Ply Black and IvoryTop Binding: Ivory ABSBody Sides: MahoganyBody Back: Arched MahoganyBack Purfling Inlay: 2-Ply Black and IvoryPurfling: 2-Ply Black and IvoryBody Binding: IvoryNeck Material: MahoganyScale Length: 24 3/4″ (629mm)Neck Shape: Modern Thin “U”Nut Width: 1 11/16″ (43mm)Neck Thickness 1st Fret: 20.5mmNeck Thickness 9th Fret: 22.5 mmTruss Rod: Dual ActionTruss Rod Wrench: 4mm Allen KeyFingerboard Material: Indian RosewoodFingerboard Radius: 12.5″ (320mm)Fingerboard Inlays: 5mm Dots – PearloidFrets Total: 22Fret Type: Narrow Tall – 2.4mm(W) x 1.3mm(H)Fingerboard Binding: 1.5 mm Ivory ABSColor: Cherry Red (CHR)Bridge String Spacing: 2” (52mm)Hardware Finish / Plating: Nickel PlatedBridge: Guild Tune-O-Matic – NickelTailpiece: Stopbar Tailpiece – NickelNut Material: CompositeTuning Machines: Guild Closed-Gear in NickelStrap Buttons: Vintage PawnPickguard: Black with Guild LogoBridge Pickup: Guild HB-2 Humbucker Nickel – BridgeNeck Pickup: Guild HB-2 Humbucker Nickel – NeckPickup Switch: 3-Way Toggle: 1.
