NGD 1976 Fender Starcaster Pics Pg. 2

Post by HNB » Fri Nov 11, 2022 10:31 am

I just sent payment over for the Starcaster. I promised Mechanical Birds to give him first right to it if I was to ever decide it wasn't right for me. I am going to keep the PM in my inbox so I don't forget. I will take good care of it for him.

I am sure it is no shock to most of you that I have developed a love for all types of WRHB. Being able to try a vintage set in a vintage guitar is something I couldn't pass up. It will sit well with my Ranaldo, Telecaster Deluxes, and my Bilt ESG right here at my desk to play and enjoy. :) The pictured he shared are beautiful and I can't wait to see it in person when it arrives.

Sweet. I’m glad it will stay in the OSG family. I played an original Starcaster one time in Toronto and it was awesome. You’ll love it.

Oh, and it’s RAnaldo. :P

Thats a beauty. I love the original run 70s Starcasters, theyre so underrated (although looking at how much prices have gone up recently, maybe theyre becoming more recognized). I think you'll enjoy this guitar.

I'm glad it's going to a good home. I'm sure it'll be fun comparing all those awesome WRHB guitars.

I am sorry bud. You always seem to find awesome stuff, so I know you will get something cool. I still have the Showman head I got from you. :)

It is advertised as having good feeling which he and I could both use so I am hopeful it is full of love. :)

Looks really good for being a year older than I am. I think I have more wear and damage than it does. LOL
