I like my starfire v . The difference is mines mahogany vs the vi being maple. My fretboard is rosewood and the vi is ebony . The inlays are different with the gold trim . Both I believe have the maple centerblock and the same electronics. The only downside is if you wanted to change pickups you can’t . They are different size than others and would need modifications to fit normal size pickups in it . Oh ant it seems to be a lot of $$$ for a Korean made guitar . They are made in the same factory as the Gretsch electronics where .

On Sweetwater they are like almost 1500 usd

Can't tell, but by the price I would guess either Chinese or Korean manufacturer.

 

The are Korean. Made in the same factory as the Gretsch electromatic are made at

In the late 70s when Japanese cars had better QC than the Americans - a bit of a 2x4 to the face for them. (same with guitars too). These days Korean cars are any bit as good as Japanese and American ones. I wonder if you can say the same about guitars??
