Duesenberg Custom Shop Starplayer TV Rusty Steel Semi-Acoustic Guitar with Case

Descrizione

One of the most sought-after Duesenberg creations, the Starplayer TV brings all the elegance of a semi-hollow body with an arched top and back, and all the sonic grace of a Domino P90 neck pickup and a Grand Vintage bridge humbucker. This Custom Shop Edition has been given a Rusty Steel finish, so every bit of this instrument has been coated in a thin layer of metal particles which have then been aged to complete an exclusive, antique-industrial look. The process is performed entirely by hand, so every example has its own unique character, and when you add on the improved performance of a Duesenberg Deluxe Tremola tailpiece and the playability of the medium-D profiled maple neck, you have an irresistible six-string stunner. This singular model comes complete with a form-fitting Custom Line hardshell case.

The Duesenberg Starplayer TV: The Birth of Rock & Roll

This model bears the much-loved sound of a Domino P90 at the neck and a Duesenberg GrandVintage humbucker at the bridge. This is basically a rock-and-roll dreamteam, where the P90 packs chords with sweet and airy openness and the humbucker frames leads with the fat edge of a classic dual-coil. When the three-way pickup switch is flipped into the middle position, a special circuit is activated to filter out the lower frequencies, leaving a sparkling, shimmering output behind and completing a versatile tonal array.
