The Starcaster Bass: Play the Legend
The Fender Starcaster Bass is back, and better than ever. With only a handful of prototypes made in the 1970s, the Starcaster achieved cult status. This Modern Player incarnation gives you a unique offset semi-hollow maple body with an alder center block for robust sustain. Stylishly bound F-holes lend a cool vintage vibe and enhance the instrument's rich resonance, while dual Wide Range humbuckers deliver a huge spectrum of amplified tone. You'll also appreciate the fast feel of the maple neck and fingerboard with its medium-jumbo frets. Play the legend: the Fender Starcaster Bass.
