I've had my eye on this bass for quite a while and now that I've finally got my hands on it I'm in love! I took it to my mentor who is a 70 year old Jazz veteran and he agrees, fantastic bass!

i've been using a short scale , free suspension , SG body bass and a long scale fender precision bass . the starfire is to change from the precision bass and fits perfectly in between the two other basses . the combibation with the ampeg VR4 is stunning . large beautyfully sustained harmonics , without going too freely all out ( like on my short scale ) and a warmer sound then the P bass . also a warmer and much more controlable sound than a Gretsch hollow body bass and less muffled than a hoffner .

If u are a fingerpicker,and u like bass chords , this is your bass . As some other folks suggest, u should put...

Probably the most fun and inspiring bass I've ever played. Does anything from thumpy Motown to jazz to hard rock. The neck is slim and fast, the balancing is great, and the pickups are the most clear and detailed ones I've ever heard. The construction and hardware is great across the board. The only two things that hold it back are the lack of shielding (the pickups have a tendency to buzz when you come near stage lights or keyboards) and the finish, which is too glossy for my liking. A slightly lighter shade of brown would have been nice too, as the finish appears close to black when not under direct light. Otherwise an incredible bass for the money. Blows the Jack Casady and Viking out of the water at this price point. This is going to stay as my main bass for quite some time.
