A fine lady

I decided in the winter for a Guild Starfire VI Blonde, although it was not available at the time, so also not somewhere playable, was. The delivery date was initially announced in June, but the guitar finally came in April.
Processing / varnish and finish, everything perfect. The strings were adjusted for my taste somewhat too high over the fretboard, but this was not a big deal.
In terms of sound, the guitar is absolutely convincing from my point of view and an interesting contrast to my Les Paul. Rather in the direction of jazz, and, what was more important to me, classic blues. A lock of the otherwise well-worked Hardcase jumps sometimes when you wear the guitar, but that's actually all I could criticize. An all-round beautiful and special guitar. Oh yes: compared to the Les Paul a real lightweight - pleasant, to relieve the pressure between the back!

It took me a few weeks to get used to it. My first guitar is a stratocaster. Finally, plugged into a Fender Blues Junior, it does very well. Personally, I find the rendering with an incredible and very balanced screamer tube. The handle is a feast. Very satisfied with the guitar. And also very satisfied with the Thomann service. It's always nickel.
