Nearly fabulous . . .
Nearly fabulous, because while in every other respect this guitar is top quality, the tremolo does not stay in tune. Despite the wobbly bridge and beautifully made nut some strings go flat and peculiarly some sharp! This is very disappointing; I have owned many types, never finding any one much good, thought Duesenberg might have succeeded as per their boast, alas just the same . . .
However I love that Duesenberg has made all the components - and in Art Deco style; the three-step motif is repeated on tuners, headstock and scratch plate. Also the standard of build and set up is exemplary. The fitted 10-50 strings feel good, easy bending (although the tremolo works against this). The fingerboard and frets are super. The pickup selector is a bit clunky, care has to be taken changing if recording. Tuners work very smoothly (just as well since they get a lot of use thanks to that tremolo!).
A puzzle is why this guitar model has a flat back, other Starplayers have gentle arches.
I changed the strap buttons to the Duesenberg multi sort, very secure even without strap locks, and coupled with their soft leather strap the guitar is very comfortable to play standing or sitting.
A very nice touch is the concave shape of the jack socket, which allows easy connection by feel. The guitar case is by far the best I have ever seen - Gibson and Collings included!
All in all a great guitar if you can forgive and live with the usual tremolo annoyance.
