Duesenberg Duo-Tone Catalina Blue & White
Product information "Duesenberg Duo-Tone Catalina Blue & White"
Starplayer TV
A handy, elegant and lightweight semi-hollow arched top & back guitar, developed from the first Starplayer from 1992. Unique in sound and playability reminds you of the times when Rock & Roll was still young.
The distinctive face of Duesenberg guitars manifests itself in the art-deco design of headstock, pickguard and hardware, while most of the body designs are based on old jazz guitars, such as those from the 1940s in Germany and in the USA, especially those created by German Emigrants. Concept, overall construction as well as the pickup circuit have produced a really special Duesenberg sound. But pay attention also to the new frame for setting the pickup inclination! Or the Super Tremola - simple function and comfortable string-pulling. The highly dynamic Custom Alnico pickups with open nickel-plated nickel silver caps round out the overall picture, so well-known musicians such as Ron Wood, Robbie McIntosh, Carl Carlton, Mike Campbell and German acts such as the Peter Maffay band, Wir-Sind-Helden And many others are among the satisfied Duesenberg customers.

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.
