These guitars play, look, and sound way more expensive than their price would lead you to believe. They ship with a nice gig bag. The Starlux's tremolo actually stays in tune.
The original idea behind the Starlux was to design an instrument with a 1950s flavour offering more contemporary tones.
The basswood body is made of a semi hollow construction for improved body resonance, the bone nut and retro style vibrato are helping to define a rich and lively tone which immediately becomes apparent when playing the instrument unplugged.
The body outlines were designed to perfectly match the playing position and its semi hollow construction helps to keep it lightweight.
The Classic Twin humbuckers are offering a wide range of possibilities crossing the boundaries of the conventional retro style guitars. The neck is a 3-piece hard maple construction for enhanced stability and tone, the fingerboard is made of Rosewood with the Magneto Starlux inlays. A roller saddle bridge is paired to the vibrato in order to enhance its tuning stability.
The new Starlux is available in finishes such as Candy Apple Red, Sunset Gold and Midnight Silver.
