Yes, it's a silly question but I just got a minty "under the bed" '66 Starfire III and the only other Starfires I've heard are modern.
This one sounds (how should I put it) very Gibson L-5 sounding on the bridge pickup (a good thing) and very thin on the neck pickup. But not thin like a Gretsch thin but sort of a clanging type thin. With both pickups going it sounds, well, it's not a sound I love.
So, is this about right? Can anyone tell me the scoop?
Thanks!
