Hello all at LTG, I've recently gotten my hands on a Westerly Starfire IV body that I've identified thanks to GAD's article which pointed out it was 1 1/2" thick. I plan on making this look like a traditional Guild when I'm done, without breaking the bank, meaning I will be buying the NS HB1 pickups and knobs. I already have tuners and a bridge but I need help with the tailpiece. I was hoping to put a Bigsby on it but I am not so sure since this Starfire is so thin. If the Bigsby isn't an option I was wondering where I could find a Starfire IV harp tailpiece that would fit. I've looked at a few Guild harp tailpieces on Reverb and the official Guild store but it seems to me that I'd need to source one specific to this year.
This will be the first guitar that I will be attempting to put back together myself and I am looking forward to the challenge.
