The Starcaster broke the semi-hollow guitar design model with its offset shape when it was introduced in the 1970s, offering versatile sounds and an out-of-this-world style for the more adventurous players. The Classic Vibe Starcaster is a return to the original Fender model, creating a massive tone thanks to its Fender-Designed Wide Range humbucking pickups. Player-friendly features include a slim and comfortable 'C' shaped neck profile, an easy-to-play 9.5-inch radius fingerboard, and narrow tall frets, as well as a stop tailpiece for solid tuning stability. This Squier model also features a unique painted contour design on the headstock, 1970s-inspired markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware, and a glossy neck finish with a vintage tint for an old-school vibe.
