Duesenberg Starplayer TV Black Sparkle Semi-Acoustic Guitar

The Starplayer TV is a favorite among active artists worldwide. When you play a Duesenberg, you quickly discover why so many artists choose it. 


Let’s delve into its features:

  1. Construction: The Starplayer TV is a semi-hollow guitar with a centerblock, providing a unique tonal response and improved feedback resistance. Whether you’re into jazz, rock, or any genre, this guitar feels right at home.

  2. Pickups:

    • The GrandVintage Humbucker at the bridge and the Domino P90 in the neck position deliver maximum flexibility. Their ingenious wiring ensures a clear and versatile tone that cuts through the mix.
    • From mellow jazz to supercharged rock, these pickups have got you covered.
  3. Vibrato Unit:

    • The Duesenberg Diamond Deluxe Tremola is the pinnacle of modern classic vibrato design. It provides reliability and allows expressive pitch modulation.
  4. Scale Length:

    • The longer 25.5" scale length ensures snappy response, defined bass frequencies, and a tight feel. It’s perfect for both rhythm and lead playing.
  5. Plek Processed:

    • The guitar undergoes meticulous Plek processing, resulting in an impeccable setup and comfortably low action without fret buzz. Each fret is precisely leveled for optimal playability.
  6. Custom Strings:

    • Equipped with Custom 10/50 factory strings, the Starplayer TV offers a tight bass feel while keeping the high notes easy to play.
  7. Headstock & Tuners:

    • The elegant high-gloss black headstock features super-smooth Z-Tuners. These tuners are precise, comfortable to use, and allow you to hide sharp string ends inside the tuner shaft.
  8. Neck & Fretboard:

    • The clever Plek process ensures an unusually low action while maintaining clean and clear notes without string buzz.
    • Each fret is measured and cut individually for optimal playability, and the fretboard edges are rounded off for a smooth feel.

In summary, the Duesenberg Starplayer TV is more than just a guitar; it’s an instrument that empowers artists to create their unique voice. Whether you’re on stage or in the studio, this guitar delivers beauty, clarity, and reliability. As Glenn Frey (The Eagles) aptly put it, “Duesenberg is the Mercedes of all guitars, finely tuned and engineered.”

Top

Top: Spruce

Spruce top offers bright, punchy tone with excellent projection and dynamics. The sound is well balanced, with clear highs and solid bass, giving the instrument distinctive resonance and sensitivity.

Neck

Neck: Maple

Maple is known for its strength and stability, making it ideal for necks that need to resist bending and warping.

Fretboard

Fretboard: Indian Rosewood

Indian rosewood is a popular wood for fingerboards, known for its hardness and rich, dark tone. It offers a warm, balanced tone with excellent response and sustain. The Indian rosewood fingerboard is valued for its smoothness and feel, while offering durability and longevity. It is popular for its rich sound and aesthetic appearance.

Тype: Semi-Hollow Body

A semi-acoustic guitar is an electric guitar with a semi-hollow body that combines features of both electric and acoustic guitars. It has an internal cavity that enhances resonance and provides a warmer tone than full-bodied electric guitars, but is less susceptible to feedback than hollow-bodied guitars. Semi-acoustic guitars are popular in jazz, blues, and rock.
