Duesenberg Fairytale SplitKing Ivory & Black
Product information "Duesenberg Fairytale SplitKing Ivory & Black"
The Duesenberg Fairytale Ivory & Black, with its stylish Art Deco look, is reminiscent of the classic lapsteel guitars of the 1930s. But don't be fooled by appearances – Duesenberg has really come up with something here to expand the limited possibilities of a 6-string lapsteel guitar. The Multibender Bridge allows you to comfortably trigger the bendings known from the pedal steel with the heel of your hand. Another highlight is the Easy Shift Capodaster, which allows you to quickly realize alternative tunings. The electrics are also impressive: a set of the newly developed Duesenberg SplitKing humbuckers for powerful humbucker and authentic single coil sound.

Duesenberg Guitars was founded in 1995 by Dieter Gölsdorf in Hanover. The manufacturer's beautiful guitars draw on the 1940s and 1950s and the Art Deco era. The electric guitar model Starplayer was the first offering and still ranks among the company's bestsellers today. But the instruments are not based on nostalgia alone: innovative parts such as the comfortable Z-Tuners, the third pickup mounting screw on the pickup frame to allow the pickup to be precisely aligned with the strings, or the Duesenberg Deluxe Tremola set them apart.
