cdiaz said:Please help me date my new Starfire 4. And any other info on it would great too. S/N: AG001549.
cdiaz said:How so?
GAD said:You might get along a little better here if you participated a bit more than just having us determine the age and/or type of new or potentially new guitars. We're starting to feel used.
Also, if you didn't know, Hans literally wrote the book on Guild guitars. Link: http://www.amazon.com/Guild-Guitar-Book ... 0634009664 He knows what he's talking about.
We're all happy to help, but please consider participating in the community instead of just grilling us for information.

I usually identify the pickups by the way they look on the back because the bobbins have solder posts for the in and out of each bobbin.

I understand. But you have to understand, I'm brand new to Guilds. So I really have no insight to contribute
