Starfire V 65' - WOW

[F30]

Found this beautiful Starfire V from 1965 from UK
Something about the patina on these older guitars that really give them a certain look.
Stunning guitar for sure.
Only problem is.... I can't afford it but looking is free

Wow that's clean and an early one. Too bad about the non-original bridge.

Good eye I didn't even notice that.
Did these era Starfires all have a 1 5/8 nut?

 

[GGJaguar]

Yes, 1 5/8".

Yes, 1 5/8".

The majority of Starfire Vs from that particular period that I've inspected had 43 mm wide nuts, which is a little over 1-11/16 of an inch.

I did post in this in the ebay section a little while ago. Happy to facilitate purchase if anyone wants it. it's been on for a while so he'd probably take an offer.
