Duesenberg Starplayer TV Phonic VW 5-stars Reviews

Pure gem

This guitar is very impressive.

When i recieve it and open the case, i discovered an astonishing withe and gold guitar. This guitar is by far the most eye catcher guitar I ever seen.

I didn't buy it for that, but this guitar is very beautifull.

Then I handle it: it's heavy, build like a tank.

Sound

- The sustain of this semi-hollow guitar is very impressive

- Also, all the Tone knobs are really effective. From the pickup selection to the tone knob, when you tweak them, it radidaly change the sound of the guitar.

- So, it's easy to play with them to find the tone you like

Tremolo and mecanics

- The tremolo works very well but the most impressive part is that this guitar stay in tune when you use it

- The mecanics are very precise

Case

- Well made and protect the guitar very well

- Design for this guitar

- More surprising: When you close the lid of the case, it push on the tremolo of the guitar to detune it while in transport.

Phonic Color version

- Shining guitar

- Eyes catcher

- Requiers a little of maintenance to stay shiny

- If you like some vintage touch, this color is probaly not the best one

Build in Strap Pins

- The guitar comes with pins that are compatible with the Duesenberg Drop Stop system

- Unfortunatly, you have to purchase this Drop Stop system separatly and i only found them on their webstore. Sad that the guitar comes not with the part for the strap at this price

Duesenber Website

- Usefull to register your guitar for warranty matters

Duesenber YT chanel

- I recommand to watch the Duesenberg YT channel because it's give you some explanations (eg: lid of the case pushing on the tremolo system)

- It also give some nice tip to take care of the guitar (tremolo, gauge, etc...)

My conclusion:

- This guitar is expensive but it's a good value for money. You don't just buy a name, the quality of the guitar is actually there

- Lucky me :)
