All this talk about glorious fender semi-hollows and the Coronado has put me in mind of the Coronado's stable-mate the Starcaster. This is a model I would definitely be snarfing up when it becomes available.

589

I mean who wouldn't be interested in a beautiful flame maple specimen? :cool:

590

cheers,

hell yeah Gav I'd want one of these in my collection, its almost got a bit of Jazzmaster shape to it. The headstock looks killer. Would prefer a starcaster to a coronado any day of the week

There's an order already placed which I was hoping would ship at the end of this month. It will now ship at the end of December. Allow 3-4 weeks at sea and through customs and we should have it end of January. Wokka the starcaster style kit should be $295.

really the 3rd pic is from the factory, wow I was going to ask where that pic was from. 24 fret F type is rare as hens teeth !
Wonder where the 3rd pic was taken from looks a little like Ad's back porch, doesn't look like China !
Cool cheers Ads I'd pay $295 for sure if the headstock is similar or a paddle big enough for the shape

Adam, can the factory do a custom order for the starcaster in an alternate wood? Or do they only do basswood hollows?

At this rate after the summer I might end up with an FC-1 and a starcaster!

Yes but then you're getting well into the $300+ price bracket. If you want a mahogany body it will be around $350. You can custom order one if you want. Usual deal, 50% deposit delivery in March.
