I've been kicking around getting a Starfire. I'm curious about the difference in the electronics and, of course, overall mojo between these models. I lean towards the IV, I've loved every US made Guild I have owned....granted, they are older Guilds. I have seen a couple of videos on these two models, the IVs tend to have guys fingerpicking Jazz and Blues, while the demos of the Starfire I seem to be Alt Rock/Punk. I'd prefer lower output pickups, the demos and descriptions make me think the pickups in the import are hotter/more modern pickups..? Any comments/experience is much appreciated.
