Guild Starfire I DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar, Left-Handed

zZounds Gear Experts Say...
With a pair of PAF-inspired HB-2 humbuckers with coil-split switches, Guild's lefty version of their mahogany semi-hollow archtop brings the vintage vibes.

Guild Starfire I DC semi-hollowbody double-cutaway electric guitars combine vintage vibes with modern updates -- and now there's the Starfire I DC for left-handed players! This elegant instrument features an arched mahogany top and mahogany back and sides, combined with a solid mahogany center block that reduces feedback and increases sustain. The guitar's Soft U-shape mahogany neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard make it comfortable and easy to play. A pair of HB-2 humbucking pickups with Alnico II magnets deliver classic PAF-inspired warmth and clarity, while dual coil-split switches enable you to add single-coil colors to your tonal palette.

I don't think I've ever purchased a new guitar that was this playable out of the box. The coil splitting makes this much more versatile and unique than anything in a similar sales category that I know of. Why aren't these more popular?
