Have to admit I ignored Guild for a lot of years. Pretty dumb, eh? I rediscovered Guild after a friend sent me a gift, a 1978 G37. Wow. So, I'm an old coot now and have all of the guitars 2 or 4 people need. One thing I would like to have before shuffling off the mortal coil is an Epiphone Casino. So's I gots to pondering... does Guild make something similar? I'm also thinking Starfire without a vibrato, but am wanting a fully hollow guitar. Thanks in advance for the help.

They are pretty uncommon, but Guild made a fully hollow maple thinline with P-90s - the Starfire III P-90 - from 2000-03. Unlike the Casino, it will have a Guild Bigsby. Keep on the lookout as they pop up from time to time.

Here's mine.

That's the one I want. I can live with a Bigsby. I have what they call a "Rockbox", which is a hollow body slightly shallower than the standard ES175 depth. Would love a thinline. Your box is exactly what I'm looking for. Fantastic. Thank you for the response.

They don’t come up for sale very often. I’ve had two. Regret selling them both.

I have thing for Bigsby-equipped guitars, owing in large part to my obsession with Brian Setzer’s music. In my quest to capture Brian Setzer’s Tone, I’ve owned far too many such guitars. After buying and selling my fair share, one of my favorites is the Guild Starfire-III with P90s. After about...

Ouch. You must have had a brain slug at the time.

Maybe. Probably.
