I like the Scarlet Red color (same as on the X-350), but the one at Thomann has a mahogany body. The Dark Emerald version (the one at Sweetwater) has a maple body which makes it more interesting to me. YMMV.

That’s beautiful - just when I’ve ordered a Starfire III with Dynasonics though. Has anyone heard about the limited run Starfire III Special in Scarlet Red with Dynasonics? It’s listed on Thomann but no pics

Would love to see a pic of that one!

There's a blue Starfire IV 12-string too apparently!:

It’s the dark emerald version I’ve just bought, hopefully be here soon.
If I’d seen this black M75 though, I think I might have picked it over the SF. I’ve always loved the look of Les Paul Customs, but way too heavy and too ‘ROCK!’ sounding for me.

I wonder if these are hollow / Korean or solid / Chinese...
I haven't seen any of these models outside of Thomann either...

Interesting to see that Starfire 3 with Dynasonics and block inlays. Their was a special run of SF3's in the late '60's with that design. I had purchased such a guitar from BillyDLite years ago. It was a mahogany body. Unfortunately I did let it go after after a while and sold it off.
