A Fresh 2-color Coat for Duesenberg's Star 6-string
Brandishing a bold 2-part paint job, the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV is a captivating custom-color spin on Duesenberg’s iconic Starplayer TV model. From the slim spruce-topped-maple semi-hollowbody construction to the proprietary Diamond Deluxe tremolo unit and Z-Tuners, the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV reimagines the golden age of electric guitar building through the lens of the modern performing musician. Plug into the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s Domino P-90 neck pickup and bridge-position GrandVintage humbucker to traverse the entire tonal spectrum of semi-hollowbody tones, from creamy single-coil cleans to biting overdrive bark. You also get a Medium “D” profile maple neck fit with a compound 12–14-inch radius and 22 jumbo frets to facilitate all manner of fingerboard finesse. It may be inspired by the past, but the Duesenberg Duo-Tone Starplayer TV is a decidedly 21st-century 6-string that truly defines the concept of a modern classic.
 
A potent pair of Duesenberg-crafted pickups
The Duesenberg Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s immensely versatile H/S pickup pairing delivers sonic flexibility nearly unmatched in the semi-hollow realm. First up, the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV comes equipped with a modern spin on an all-time-classic pickup. The Domino P-90 single-coil boasts a supremely clear, warm, and creamy tonality that tackles everything from raspy blues to ultra-clean jazz without breaking a sweat. To complement the single-coil neck pickup, the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s bridge position harbors a GrandVintage pickup voiced to capture the dynamic and responsive sound of an old-school humbucker. The Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s pickups sport a remarkably unique final touch in the form of a built-in filter in the middle position that cuts out lower frequencies, resulting in a brighter and funkier feel.
 
Singing semi-hollow construction
Mixing the best of vintage-style semi-hollow construction and modern performance-minded enhancements, the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s body — comprising a spruce top and maple back and sides — slightly slims down the big-bodied semi-hollows of yore for a more comfortable feel and lighter weight. A solid center block runs through the middle of the Duo-Tone Starplayer TV’s body, dramatically reducing feedback and enhancing natural sustain. The body is paired with an equally luxurious 1-piece maple set-neck carved into a Medium “D” profile. The neck is not quite the chunky “D” you’d find on a vintage semi-hollow, but just large enough to fill out your grip when navigating the rosewood fingerboard’s 12–14-inch compound radius.
 
Duesenberg: the 6-string pride of Deutschland
Founded by German guitar designer Dieter Gölsdorf in 1989, Duesenberg guitars represent a multinational mixing pot of American art deco aesthetics, hot-rod heritage, and exacting German engineering. Duesenberg's utterly distinctive instruments — affectionately dubbed "Doozys" by their adherents — gleam with proprietary parts and pickups that merge the daring appointments of the early electric guitar age with the pinpoint precision of modern manufacturing excellence. From the iconic Starplayer semi-hollow guitars to basses, lap steels, and beyond, every Duesenberg that Sweetwater carries embodies consummate artisanship. Fittingly, this unerring dedication has attracted more than a few luminaries, including the likes of Bob Dylan, Joe Walsh, Mike Campbell, John Mayer, and Tom Bukovac. For the musician who demands superlative performance, idiosyncratic innovation, and master-level musical detail in equal measure, only a Doozy will do.
