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.
