All user reviews of 4/5 for the Duesenberg Starplayer Special

German guitar parts Duesenberg (the mechanisms are very accurate), two double-coil pickups.
the new versions no longer have a push-pull tone knob but with a center detent which serves micro split:
By turning clockwise was the single coil low to high and after the double notch boninage of high to low.
3 position selector, Bridge type Gibson Tune-o-matic
neck with rosewood fingerboard, wide and thick!
Good finish, good build quality but the pots look a bit cheap? impression or reality?

UTILIZATION

Channel I is very wide and very thick (compared to my other guitars ...). it took me a while to get used mostly on the lower part of the game or it gets really large.
the guitar is heavy but sustain gains, it is well balanced game no problem except that the shoulders should take (bring a strap off ...)
find a good crunch sound or distortion takes a few seconds max. In his clear is much harder but the position with the central micro split gives good things.

SOUNDS

The pickups are high output, no problem to cruncher and to modulate the effect of the knob volume. It's perfect for blues, whatever the microphone. Unlike its being very clearly between the two microphones each with its charm.
if they chose more distortion it works very well also sounds kind Rock, vitage Rock, hard rock are very convincing
I have doubts for the metal and sounds the most current saturated, but I did not and I do not know too much distortion pedals used in this style. even when I put the reserves on the style

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this guitar a few months ago for € 800 new. I have a version Goldtop that I find sublime (see profile photo). I also tried the black is classic, but very very beautiful. (Versions sequined blue and gray are to see real before deciding it really is disco kitsch and more than the pictures).
I think this guitar deserves high marks for blues and rock (because of my purchase). It is quite versatile, but you have to play on the output volume and the split to really explore all possibilities.

Apelles this guitar blues, blues rock, rock type AC / DC, Led Zep, ZZ Top, Rolling Stones, Kravitz and other rock "classic." For this is very very good and the guitar sound is almost alone (
I put him to ca Overall 8
