The crème of the crop for Guild’s Starfire line, the Starfire VI Special has it all—premium materials, top of the line inlays, and an authentic 1960s design that honors the Starfire’s 60 year heritage while giving today’s players some modern performance enhancements.
Introduced in 2023, the GUILD Newark St. Collection Starfire VI Special (Kingswood Green) semi hollow body electric guitar (with central block) brings aesthetic upgrades in its Kingswood Green metallic finish, DeArmond Dynasonic pickups, and premium gold hardware.
Featuring Guild’s iconic double-cutaway Starfire body shape, the Starfire VI is crafted with an all Maple laminate body and solid Spruce center block that delivers classic Guild semi-hollow tones without sacrificing live playability. With their balanced warmth and versatility, the DeArmond Dynasonic pickups capture a players touch and nuance and offer up a wide range boutique quality tones.
