The Starplayer Phonic is a semi-hollow instrument featuring a solid centerblock, Pearloid binding, a single F-Hole, arched top and a flat back. Semi-hollow guitars deliver a unique and open response suitable for any genre.
Fitted with our most popular pickup combination: GrandVintage Humbucker and Domino P90 covered by our elegant Phonico pickup covers in a striking gold finish. The 4-Way rotary switch offers a new pickup combination.
A Plek processed fretboard guarantees perfectly level frets. This is the basis for our multi-step fret polishing and setup work all done by hand that eventually makes all our instruments play like nothing you have ever played before.
The Phonic delivers all the open, bright and defined tone that our instruments are known for. It is designed to sit right where a guitar has to sit in the mix while still providing every frequency needed to cut through.

Rare, limited-edition instruments designed for those who play beyond the ordinary.
Instruments we created in collaboration with artists around the world. Designed for their individual needs, but made for everyone.
Bent sides and glued on top and back. Added solid center block. The classic construction. Semi-Hollow instruments combine the distinct tone of a hollow construction with the feedback resistance of a solid body. Extremely versatile.
A solid body that features big sound chambers for enhanced tone and weight reduction. Particularly characteristic tone somewhere between a solid and semi-hollow construction.
Made from a single slab of wood. Delivers instant response, a lot of attack and sustain and perfect feedback resistance.
