Duesenberg Starplayer TV Velvet Electric Guitar (White Velvet)

Features

• Semi-Hollow: The Starplayer TV Velvet is a semi-hollow instrument featuring a solid centerblock, arched top and back. Semi-hollow guitars deliver a unique and open response suitable for any genre.
• Split/King Pickups: The two Split/King pickups are capable of producing real singlecoil and real humbucker tone. Two mode-select switches are located on the custom pickguard and can be raised or lowered into the pickguard to suit your personal playing style.
• Plek Processed: A Plek processed fretboard guarantees perfectly level frets. This is the basis for our multi-step fret polishing and setup work all done by hand that eventually makes all our instruments play like nothing you have ever played before. Custom matte finishes highlight the unique character of these instruments and create a fresh appeal, located somewhere between traditional design and modern finishing. Fitted with two Split/King Duo-Coil pickups, which allow for both real Humbucker and real Singlecoil tones, and all-over gold hardware, these special editions really are amongst the finest instruments available today. THE SPLIT/KING IS NOT THE SPLITTABLE PICKUP YOU MIGHT EXPECT. The innovative coil concept of extending a real singlecoil to a full humbucker with a fine-tuned seperate coil enables you to access both pickup sounds with the flick of a switch. The Split/King actually houses a real, full-size singlecoil pickup that can stand on its own compared to your regular split humbucker. This pickup is the pinnacle of our own component design and delivers a maximum of versatility.

The two mode-select switches located at the lower pickguard can be raised or lowered inside the pickguard with a small elevator mechanism.

This allows your to set them high when you want them easily accessible, or low when you like to set your tone and not have them in the way.

The fretboard is to your music, what the handle of a brush is to a painting. It says a lot about an instrument how much care was taken here.

Every single Duesenberg instrument is expertly pleked for buzz-free playability all throughout the fretboard. It is then carefully finished by hand and precisely set up by one of our professional luthiers. The luthier responsible also leaves his or her signature inside the instrument.
