I ran across an Ebay auction where they said....

" Heck, it's a tradition dating back to Trey Anastasio of Phish and Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead. Of course, these are all highly talented musicians who could have chosen to play any number of other guitars. From its comfortable offset waist to its classy bound f holes, this Fender Modern Player Starcaster will show you exactly what's to love about this amazing instrument."

Does anyone know any history on this subject?  Do you know if Trey ever played a Starcaster?

I don't think Trey ever did. Only hollowbody he ever played was the Languedocs.

I thought this was a forum to discuss Phish and their music, not to shamelessly plug (SPAM) your made in China piece of shit.... If you love supporting the Chinese economy, I suggest you move there... just imagine how much you'd save on shipping costs!!!
