Hey friends,
I think it is finally time to take the Starfire plunge, but I am having trouble figuring out which one will be complimentary to me and my rig. I play pop rock, classic rock and some blues and my main amp is a 71 Vox Ac30.
As far as hollowbodies go I have:
A 69 Guild m-75 bluesbird that is completely hollow inside. I love this guitar.
An early 90s epi casino seafoam green w/bigsby and p90s-great mojo great tones, a bit tough to control live as the pickups are a touch microphonic with the chrome covers.
I also have a Taylor T3 w/bigsby that is just phenomenal. So many tones can be coaxed out of it. it is the spankiest hollowbody i have ever heard.
I am kind of looking for a hollow body for rhythm tracks for studio work that would sound huge with gain and stuff (think Foo Fighters) but also can be used live for lead playing. Obviously the Starfire iv and v's are a good place to start because they are close to the 335'ish stuff, but I must say the III's are pretty cool looking. At first, I didnt think so, but the more I look, I dig the vibe.
What are your guys thoughts? Teach me
