Starfire v replacement pickups

[Jared macneill]

Hi my name is Jared and I’m new here. In March I pulled the trigger on a new starfire v for $1170 cad brand new shipped to my door. I was pretty happy with they way it played and the Guild branded bigsby Is nice . But I’m not fond of the pickups . The I’m more of a single coil (telecaster) kind of guy . I think the best pickup I’ve used was tv Jones hilo tron found one the newer electromatic lineup. Because but at the time I couldn’t afford the Gretsch . Overall I like the guild far more than the Gretsch. The only thing I can say about the Gretsch is I really liked the colour and pickups but I don’t like the look of a Gretsch . I have a few pickups in mined The tv Hilo, t armond or dynosonic . Or possibly a supertron and filtertron classic combination. I do know I like Dwayne eddy,And other guys like what . But what would you guys recommend

Welcome to LTG! Some folks with more experience should be by soon, but I know someone here has replaced the small humbuckers (as on your SF-V) with T-Armonds. The 4 pickup mount holes don't line up exactly but they were easily covered by a custom-cut neoprene spacer that is used under the T-Armonds (as well as Dynasonics). So, those two pickups would be viable and fine choice. Good luck!!
