The groundbreaking semi-hollow offset design of the Starcaster first shook things up upon its introduction in the 1970s. Today's Starcasters continue in that same mold-breaking tradition with this entry from Squier as proof. The Squier Contemporary Active Starcaster features a semi-hollow laminated body paired with a roasted maple neck. This combination works for exceptional playing speed and comfort with the new addition of SQR Active Ceramic Humbucker pickups. These high-output electronics cut through mixes and make the Starcaster known on a stage. A six-saddle adjustable bridge with a stop tailpiece ensures stability in tuning while a gloss body finish makes the guitar visually stand out.
