SOLD - 2008 Buscarino Guitars Starlight Nylon Electric Crossover Classical Guitar

John Buscarino's new Starlight model is designed for the gigging nylon string player. It's thin body is hollow but with a solid tree beneath the bridge and a B-Band pickup installed so it can be played at volume with clear tone and no feedback. John built this one for us and topped it with a Master Grade Quilted Maple top that is just stunning. It is beautifully simple with gorgeous details such as the Ebony knobs and Abalone trimmed tie block on a Snakewood Bridge. The 50mm nut and 57mm spacing allow for a multitude of styles from Jazz to Brazilian to Classical. Now you can have a hassle free gigging guitar with Buscarino quality.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"This is a great playing Nylon String that is extremely versatile. John's picks his best Quilted Maple for us and on this one he added a Snakewood bridge with Abalone around the tie block. The B-Band pickup sounds great plugged in and the playability is superb as we've come to expect from John Buscarino. " - Paul Heumiller

"This is loads of fun to play. It's designed to be plugged in and the pickup sounds great." - Al Petteway
