The Starplayer Special reawakens the early history of Duesenberg by reintroducing of the very first Duesenberg guitar.
This brand new ex-distributor's sample instrument has a few minor rubs and marks on the finish (but still has the film cover on the pick guard). Hence the amazing price! Full RRP of this with case is £1135.00.
This instrument available at only £899.95 !
It's been used as a sample only by the distributor. Full guarantee.
Its alder body is combined with a solid maple top, with four screws anchoring the maple neck securely to the body. This construction method unifies into one aesthetically streamlined whole two worlds of traditional guitar making - bolt-on and set-in neck-to-body attachments - here, the end of the neck is enclosed by the body's neck pocket, just as it should be in a properly built instrument.
The mounted Grand Vintage pickup - in conjunction with the somewhat "hotter" Crunchbucker - delivers penetrating and powerful rock sound, whereas the multi-tone potentiometer extends the possibilities beyond that with several additional singlecoil-like sound options.
