I have 6 string Starfield acoustic, Model 696. Still has paper label inside that says it is made in Japan. I bought new in probably 1978. I was taking lessons and my teacher picked it out for me because of the superior sound at a reasonable price. I never mastered the instrument as I have no natural ability but I have loaned it to my brother with talent that offered to buy it from me. He loved the sound. I hung on to it and my son is now taking lessons with it.

I have a starfield guitar, it do not say it series brand or anything on it all all that can tell me what its worth. when i was 17 my friends gave it to me on my birthday.. so like 5 years ago. They found it in the trash. it was a lil dirty and the elctonics werent working. I took it to a guitar place to have it fixed. It only cost me 60$ to fix and while it was there someone offeed me $350 and i said no. So i could only imagine its worth more. if u know anymore about the starfield let me kno.. mine is a hollow body acoustic

I also have a Starfield 0698M, jumbo concert style, in fantastic shape. Yes, it is a Gibson clone, made by Ibanez. My guitar is about a 1975, I think. Blonde, and in almost mint condition. The only thing that it needs is new tuners, since these are 30 years old! The guitar was given to me by a friend who bought it way back new, and was rarely played. I’ve had it 4 years and have just gotten back to acoustic and am enjoying the Starfield! It’s a find. worth about $400 – $500, from what I can find out. There weren’t very many of these guitars made. If you’ve got one, hang on to it.
