{"product_id":"fender-2017-starcaster-mint-condition","title":"Fender 2017 Starcaster Mint Condition","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo sales tax for US customers outside California.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fender Starcaster is a semi-hollow thinline design built on a maple body with a maple neck and fretboard, a reissue of a desirable 70's offering from Fender. The Wide Range Special humbuckers, reading 7.72k at the neck and 8.11k at the bridge, are wound to produce a fuller output than a single-coil while retaining definition and note separation. This example is in genuinely mint condition throughout — finish, frets, fretboard, pickguard, hardware, and electronics are all unmarked and show no signs of wear. Action is set low and even at 2\/32\" on both the first and sixth strings at the 12th fret with 10-46s installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFender introduced the Starcaster in 1976 as a direct response to Gibson's dominance in the semi-hollow market, particularly the ES-335. It was a short-lived model — discontinued by 1980 — and never achieved strong commercial traction in its original run, which makes surviving examples, especially clean ones, genuinely collectible today. Fender revived the Starcaster name for a series of reissues and variations in the 2010s and 2020s. The natural finish on a maple body is a clean presentation that shows off the wood grain. All original finish, hardware, and electronics are intact and unmodified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are no condition issues to report. No repairs have been made to the neck, body, fretboard, or nut. Wiring and solder joints are original. The guitar comes with a vinyl, single-layer (cheap) gig bag (not original, fair condition). No additional accessories or documentation are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul
