I've owned an Epiphone Dot for several years, but never been inspired by it. I've always liked the quirky style of the Starcaster since the original came out in the 70s, so I've kept my eye on the "reissues" as an alternative since they came out.
After months of reading all the specs, reviews and forum posts I could find, and watching all the YouTube videos I could google, I finally pulled the trigger on a new Starcaster in natural maple finish. In my research I found that they varied more than a pound in weight so I shopped around and found a nice lightweight one from a dealer on Reverb. Im not sure if it was holiday cheer or if dealers are starting to blow them out but i got it for well under street price. It came in the other day and I'm digging it so far.
The Offset waist makes it comfortable under my arm and it feels smaller than the average ES 335 type. The neck and scale is instantly comfortable to this old Fender guy. I'm hoping it becomes the Fender replacement for my uninspiring Epiphone Dot.

I'm eager to hear from other owners and find out how they're using their Starcaster, and what kind of mods they're making.

I'm hearing nothing but crickets here, so it looks like I'm a lone Starcaster enthusiast...
Like usual, blazing a fresh trail.
