Magneto Starlux, Fixed Bridge (SL-4500) - Sonic Blue

The original idea behind the Starlux was to create an instrument with authentic 1950s character while delivering a broader, more contemporary tonal range.

Its basswood body features a semi‑hollow construction that enhances natural resonance while keeping the instrument lightweight and comfortable. The body contours are carefully shaped to fit the playing position perfectly, and the lively acoustic response is immediately apparent even when played unplugged.

The Starlux is fitted with a bone nut and is now available with a Tune‑o‑matic bridge and stop tailpiece, offering increased sustain, solid tuning stability, and a more direct connection between string and body compared to the original vibrato‑equipped version.

Classic Twin humbuckers provide a wide tonal palette that extends well beyond traditional retro‑style sounds. The neck is constructed from three pieces of hard maple for improved stability and tonal definition, while the rosewood fingerboard features signature Magneto Starlux inlays.
