quantat « A PURE wonder »
Published on 09/25/12 at 00:02Made in Germany.
Some imported parts (knobs Japan selector USA, Italy input jack).
Duesenberg vibrato: a beautiful face and it not tune the guitar (even the G string)
UTILIZATION
It is a marvel: the handle is perfect.
It is a bit heavy due to the size but not more than a solid body of solid wood. It does not prevent me from playing more than 4 hours in a row without dropping out (while I tired after half an hour with my Cort Artisan B4).
SOUNDS
I use it with a VT30 or directly via the sound kord ax1000g: I get clear sound and powerful slap, round and warm sound, great for crunches. I found this guitar on all the sounds I was looking for (after trying other well-known brands ... maybe too familiar?)
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for two months, but I already played on a TV Starplayer (including microphones and acastillage are identical) and I can not sleep anymore.
I tried various shift box which I still have some gripes (including the high end), especially in terms of finishes.
The Duesenberg is ultra neat, down to the smallest detail: the knobs are not those found on low-end guitars (as is the case for cetraines brands) and are not likely to use the pick guard style "art deco", follows the shape of the guitar is topped by a metallic bar with the trademark symbol, like vibrato both massive and worked (adjustable in length), the selector is heavy and solid and produces an elegant "clack".
I had not ever seen the mechanical system: the fate behind the head string (finite strings soil / if / you fall half in the fingers). Grover's my cheap Washburn are next to those. Even the mechanical design is worked.
Exceptional value for money in my opinion (I almost had recoiled trying another scratch of a great brand, the price was double, wondering if the seller was not mistaken in the picking).
I can not say that I like the most: aesthetics, sounds, finish, handling ... everything is as wanted.
I would do this choice, of course, without the slightest hesitation.
Come visit the "hall of fame" Duesenberg: a European brand that appeals to guitarists across the Atlantic ... there's a real reason for that.
