Product Description

The Starcaster is arguably one of Fender’s boldest designs. Its striking offset semi-hollow design stuck out like a sore thumb among the classic Fender staples.

Now, Squier have breathed new life into the semi-hollow Starcaster. Dual humbuckers offer stadium-sized tone, while a satin C-shape neck and offset curves offer a comfortable playing experience no matter what your style is. A rock ‘n’ roll instrument to the core with an accessible price point – what’s not to love?

Key features

  • Curved semi-hollow body for resonant tones and comfortable feel
  • All-Maple construction for crystal-clear treble response
  • Dual Squier humbucker pickups for great rock tones, modern or classic
  • Comfortable C-shape neck with satin finish for easy playing
  • Adjustable tailpiece bridge for excellent tuning stability

Here’s what Fender say:

The Starcaster broke the mold of semi-hollow guitar design with its offset body shape when it was introduced in the ‘70s, offering versatile sounds and out-of-this-world styling for the most adventurous players.

The Affinity Series Starcaster creates massive tone courtesy of its dual Squier humbucking pickups and is easy to play thanks to its slim, comfortable C-shaped neck profile. This Squier model also features a unique contoured headstock, an adjustable bridge with stop tailpiece for solid tuning stability, durable chrome-plated hardware and a smooth satin neck finish for a natural feel.
