I'm assuming you mean Starfield? That's what mine is, and I can tell you they are one of a few sub-brands made in the Ibanez factory back in the '70's. The first 2 numbers on the serial number designate the year, mine…"

- Yeah, mine is the only one I ever saw too. I'm glad it works for you. Does yours have the Maple fretboard as well? Very nice looking and sounding guitars. Ours are worth $200 -$300 depending on condition. You can't even find a value in books, but the name is always mentioned in conjunction with Ibanez. An actual Ibanez has better grade flame maple back and sides and I have seen a couple on Ebay and such. They are also hard to find, but fetch a couple 2 - 3 hundred bucks more. I got mine dirt cheap, but had to have new tuners and nut and saddle replaced. Sadly still not useable for me. Have you posted any pictures?

- Hi Jesse,
I'm assuming you mean Starfield? That's what mine is, and I can tell you they are one of a few sub-brands made in the Ibanez factory back in the '70's. The first 2 numbers on the serial number designate the year, mine happens to be a '77. They are virtually the same specs as the Ibanez models, but the woods are lesser grades. Mine is very loud which I like, but has a very narrow neck at the nut which makes it difficult for me to play - how about yours?
