    Old school psychedelic rock from Korea

    Ooops - put this in the wrong area! Here we go: Shin Joong Hyun / Kim Jeong Mi "The Sun" Been really getting into this lately. For those who don't know, Shin Joong Hyun was (is, not dead yet!) a guitarist who was extremely active in the 1960s and 70s in his youth (he's in his 70s now), who...

    Korea music before K-pop.. Rock, psychedelic

    Shin Joong Hyun / Kim Jeong Mi "The Sun" Been really getting into this lately. For those who don't know, Shin Joong Hyun was (is, not dead yet!) a guitarist who was extremely active in the 1960s and 70s in his youth (he's in his 70s now), who drew the ire of the dictator at the time, Pak...

    SF basses with Badass bridges... why? Worth it?

    I've seen them fairly often on JS-IIs - but isn't the top of a Starfire arched enough to make a bridge that's flat against the body fit poorly or deliver action that's a bit too low? Personally, I love the way the Hagstrom bridge voices the notes - it's somewhere between a traditional modern...

    Effects! Fairfield Circuitry, Dr Scientist, COS

    Lots of stuff. I'd love to send a bit towards the forum. These are also on sale locally, on Seoul Craigslist (there might be some pricing typos regarding currency), and on TalkBass. Prices are inclusive of shipping via EMS. PayPal is probably best. I'll remove stuff once it's gone, or strike it...

    Re-seating a Bisonic into the metal frame..

    Well, it happened once and tried to fix it before, but I'm short on tools and am looking for DIY suggestions before I take it into a shop. Basically (and I'll try to get some photos up soon..) the black pickup itself is set within a chrome frame, and it's this chrome frame that is set into the...

    GSR basses?

    Well I think we've all had a look at the pair of 'GSR SF' basses, and Frono mentioned (I believe) something about Guild not being able to use the name 'Starfire' anymore? The only time I recall hearing GSR as a product tag is for sports cars, meaning Grand Sport Rally, or something like that...

    WTB SG style case for a JS-II bass

    Well, I know I'm not the only one looking, but I'm looking for a hard case that'll hold the JS in transit. I don't need an original, and actually, the best would be an instrument-shaped case, you know, the kind that shipped with Gibson EB3s back in the day, which share very similar dimensions to...

    A post for luthiers, repairmen, and tinkerers (SF bass)

    Hey all - got a bit of a question for you pertaining to a Starfire that's come up. Now, I've never owned a semi-hollow bass, hence some of my earlier threads about caring for such an instrument (seems mgod is confident about their beastly fortitude, so I'll take his well-qualified word on...

    Year of the Black Dragon

    Hi guys, I know this could easily go into the 'members music' forum, but I feel it's almost more appropriate here because it's all bass, start to finish.. Anyway, 2012 is the Year of the Black Dragon according to the Chinese calendar, which weighs pretty heavily here in Korea. So this is how...

    Hollowbody/semi-hollow care vs. acoustic care

    Pasted from the question I just put up on TB, which I wanted to put up over here since it's a Starfire I might finally land :mrgreen: : I was hoping that some of you with experience in owning hollowbodies and semi-hollows could comment on instrument care. I'm looking into a blocked hollowbody...

    De-fretting poll/question/community feeler..

    Well, Bassmanpatsfan (think it's his same handle here) reminded me some time ago that there'd been some idle chatter concerning a '72 JS-II I picked up a while ago on TalkBass so I thought I'd at least come by (it's not always convenient to come by since LTG blocks my region (Korea) so I have to...

    Messy repair! Glue's everywhere! Gah!

    Well, so I guess I was supposed to play this JS-II like a toy or something.. But at least it's not permanent. Here's the skinny: when I got it, I turned it inside out, cleaning it, finding proper size screws for the mismatches and places that simply didn't have any, etc, and lo and behold, the...

    WTB: Guild JS-II, with original Hangstroms or Guild HBs

    Hi all, It's been several months since I picked up my first Guild - a 1970 JS-II with the Hagstrom pair, one single coil bisonic, one humbucker. EDIT: I've heard that Fred Hammon, maker of Darkstars, is still in business - which means that if you've got a JS-II from '71 after the pickup...
