This was marked as a 1968 Starfire II in "The Vault" at Bizarre Guitar in Reno (OMG you've got to go there. they have a multi million dollar collection of vintage guitars, however I digress...) I told them I'm absolutely no expert, but I didn't think it was stock based on the knobs, pickups and switch, and truss rod cover. But I thought it played and sounded like a dream, so they gave me a deal on it and I brought it home.
and spent some time researching
Well based on the serial number (13977) I now think it could be a 1960, They dated it wrong?
And most of the parts at least look like they are from the correct period?. (I was sure wrong in the store, oops)
Those of you who know can you help me determine the originality of this guitar? Thanks in advance, Z.
