Fender Modern Player Starcaster £ 550. Guild Newark St. M75 Aristocrat Bigsby £545

Plankspanker · June 2019

SOLD Fender Starcaster Modern Player Semi Acoustic.

Very good condition, pro set up, low choke free action, increasingly rare.

Strat like feel to the neck, the reissue wide Range Humbuckers pickups are particularly good, fat, bright, twangy and articulate- nice balance with the semi maple construction. Impressive build quality, nicely resonant and quite light around 7.5 lbs

SOLD Guild Aristocrat M75 with professionally fitted Guild logo Bigsby set up with the excellent Bricks Biggsfix roller system fitted to the Bigsby at the Bricks workshop in Anchorage Alaska. This gives the perfect string break over the bridge and makes for a very stable trem system which stays in tune very well.

Very good condition, though with some wear on the gold plating. Professional set up, plays great, sounds fab, frets near untouched, exceptionally light weight. Absolutely no issues, includes original hard case, harp tailpiece, replaced Bigsby roller, truss rod spanner, case keys and Genuine 70s faux silk guitar strap with gold Schaller strap locks.

The Franz P90 pickups need a special mention, crisp, pokey, articulate and really accentuate the hollow spruce top build of the guitar.

Selling as I have a M75 Gold Top version I prefer the look of so this has been sat in its case unplayed.

From Guild...…….

Hollow body with spruce braced top. Guild’s compact and lightweight M-75 Aristocrat model expertly evokes its predecessor of the early 1950s, with a gracefully sculpted single-cutaway hollow body specifically designed to produce the resonance of a larger instrument. Other premium features include a classic Antique Sunburst finish, comfortable and rock-solid three-piece neck and the tonal magnificence of dual Franz P90 Soapbar pickups. The welcome return of a true Guild classic. Also available in Black.

Yum. Someone buy this.

I don't suppose you'd consider selling the Bigsby separately?

Plankspanker · June 2019

Yes you're right I wouldn't

Trude · June 2019

Would you consider disclosing where you got it from? I checked with Guild a while ago and they didn't seem to sell them separately.

Hi, I seem to remember Guild would only supply to within the US so I bought one and had them post it direct to Biggsfix who fitted the replacement roller then posted it to me in the UK. Hope that helps.
