I'm trying to verify a Guild Starfire Bass Serial Number AB100137

my understanding is that some of them got Dark Stars swapped in, maybe not at the Westerly Factory, but right around the time they were new.
Care to elaborate? I'm thinking Dark Stars were not available in great numbers until 2003 (at the earliest) and I can recall no stories about a store or entrepreneur who bought Starfire II basses in bulk and kept them as NOS for five years. It is such an obvious thing to put Dark Stars in a 90's reissue that I can imagine individual owners doing so independently.
I think "in great numbers" is the operative phrase there.also i thought Dark Stars went back as far as the 70s or 80s?
i dont recall the details, some dealers may have been doing it. also "in bulk" are your words not mine. thats not what I said or meant.
