Guild 2001 Starfire III Transparent Cherry w/ Hard Case, Very Good

No sales tax for US customers outside California.

This Guild 2001 Starfire III in transparent cherry is in very good condition, and I'd call it "excellent" if it weren't from some surface wear on the top around the floating bridge.  It set up very nicely with low action that is a pleasure to play.

It has a laminated maple body with binding, a one-piece mahogany neck with a soft vintage U profile, and a rosewood fretboard with pearloid dot inlays. The finish, hardware, pickups, pots and wiring are all original.  

The pair of Guild humbuckers read 7.66k at the neck and 7.62k at the bridge, and a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece sits on the floating aluminum bridge. The truss rod is fully loosened, and the guitar plays well with 10-46 strings. 

It comes with a very good Gretsch hard case, which is not original to the guitar.
