Any guesses? I have a 1979, and I'm trying to figure out if it's too rare to let go.
Starfire 4-D (Dimarzios). How many did they make?

For what it is worth I have a 'burst one that is around '79. It has the harp stop.

Just fyi, I have never seen one, except in the Bert Weeden video, so I would like to see some pics, please.

I don't think the rarity of a SF4 with Dimarzios would be a big deal to many. Just look at the price of used Dimarzios on Ebay compared to the price of HB1s (when you can find them).

One of the things I like about HB1 outfitted guitars, beyond their tone, is how easy it is to swap in & out other pickups. With the HB1 lugs it is a breeze. I have been thinking about selling my SF4D and figured I'd keep the reissue SF5 foe exactly that reason. I have already installed vintage HB1 in lieu of the late model HB1's and it would be easy to install XR7s and the Dimarizio's. One of these days I guess.

Why did I see "Dimarzio" and think "DeArmond"? :-(
