This is a very rare one!
Duesenberg's flagship model "Starplayer TV", 3P.U. custom spec!
The body is a combination of spruce top and flame maple. The neck is made of maple and rose, a specification shared by the Starplayer series that makes the most of the acoustic sound, but what is unique compared to other models is the three pickups in a row.
The original D-Tron pickups installed in this model are characterized by their slightly low output and sparkling high frequency output.
It is not as peppy as the typical Filter-Tron pickups, making it easy to handle, but it is also an interesting pickup that can create a twangy sound depending on the amp settings.
In addition, the circuit has a unique gimmick unique to Duesenberg.
At a quick glance, it looks like a normal 1Vol, 1Tone control, but the Tone pot is a balancer type with a click, which functions as a tone cutoff when turned counterclockwise from the center, and as an independent volume for the center pickup when turned clockwise.
This control allows for more flexible sound creation, and it succeeds in bringing out more of the potential of the 3P.U.
The greatest feature of the 3P.U is its outstanding looks. Based on the black color, the hardware is unified with gold parts, and is gorgeous and gorgeous. All of the Art Deco style classical design parts are made in-house, and have been thoroughly researched not only for their beauty but also for their functionality.
The Bigsby-type tremolo unit is designed to eliminate the stress of string changes by allowing the strings to be stretched through the hole like a stop tailpiece. Furthermore, arming is smooth and tuning deviations are minimized. The pegs can be set either horizontally or vertically, depending on your preference.
The final setup of the neck, which determines the playability, is done using the "PLEK" repair machine to ensure that the neck is in perfect condition. Beautiful looks, versatile sound, and reliable playability!
