I'm usually in the acoustic section but thought I'd comment on a new Starfire III I'm setting up for a friend. First of all, he got a screaming deal on a going out of business sale. $795. This is a really nice guitar. My son in law has a 68 Starfire IV, and the necks are pretty much the same. Fit and finish are fine. Sure, it's got a plastic nut, but the hardware and pickups are very good and it pretty much nails the vintage vibe they were going for. Plays great, sounds great. What's not to like? Pretty much the nut. That's an easy change.
I'm usually a very vintage guy, but this was a nice guitar.
