2019 Fender Starcaster
Summary: Since the mid-to-late 1970s, the Starcaster has occupied a special place in Fender history as its one-and-only offset-waist semi-hollow electric guitar. This version of the Starcaster maintains many of the features of the original including maple construction, dual f-holes and two Fender Wide Range humbucker pickups with chrome covers. The neck radius is slightly more compact at 9.5-inches and features the same 22 medium jumbo frets. Some changes include the removal of the master volume control and the addition of an Adjusto-Matic bridge with anchored tailpiece.
Body: Laminated Maple with an Alder center-block, gloss Aged Cherry Burst finish.
Neck: Maple with a Maple fingerboard, 25.5” scale length, 1.650” nut width, 22 frets, 9.5” radius, black dot inlays.
Pickups/Hardware: Two Wide Range humbuckers, adjusto-matic bridge/anchored tailpiece, 2x volume/2xtone controls/3-way pickup selector, synthetic bone nut, Standard Cast/Sealed tuning keys.
Cosmetics: This guitar is in great shape. The body has very light surface scratches that can be seen in a reflection and the back has very light indentations. The back of the neck is clean and smooth, and the frets show almost no wear. The pickguard has been removed and the holes are visible (See Photos Please).
Playability: Our in-house guitar tech has inspected, setup, and restrung this instrument with a new set of strings. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable. The frets are in great shape with no major grooves or divots from use and it plays beautifully up and down the fretboard with no dead spots or choking out.
Modifications: The pickguard has been removed and not included.
