The Duesenberg Starplayer TV in Midnight Flake is a captivating blend of vintage inspiration and modern engineering, wrapped in a finish that evokes the depth and shimmer of a midnight sky. It is an instrument that draws the eye immediately, yet its true appeal reveals itself in the way it feels and responds in the hands of a player.

Built as a semi-hollow singlecut, the body pairs maple back and sides with a lively spruce top, producing a tone that is open, resonant, and full of character. There is an airy warmth to its voice, balanced by a clear and focused articulation that holds together beautifully whether played clean or pushed into overdrive. The PUR lacquer finish enhances both resonance and visual depth, allowing the Midnight Flake color to subtly shift and glimmer under changing light.

The set maple neck is carved into a comfortable medium D profile, offering a familiar and supportive grip that suits a wide range of playing styles. Its 12 inch radius fingerboard, crafted from Indian rosewood, provides a smooth and consistent feel across all positions, ideal for both chordal work and expressive lead playing. Cream dot inlays keep the look classic and uncluttered, while 22 jumbo frets and a 25.5 inch scale length give the instrument a confident, articulate response with plenty of room to explore.

Duesenberg’s hardware design is as functional as it is distinctive. The 3-point radius bridge works seamlessly with the Diamond Deluxe Tremola, delivering smooth, controlled vibrato with excellent tuning stability. Z-Tuners with an 18:1 ratio offer precise adjustments, ensuring reliability in both studio and live settings.

At its core, the Starplayer TV features a versatile and musical pickup pairing. The Domino P90 in the neck position produces rich, rounded tones with a touch of grit, while the Grand Vintage humbucker at the bridge delivers clarity, punch, and a classic, authoritative edge. With a straightforward control layout of one volume, one tone, and a 3-way toggle switch, shaping your sound feels intuitive and immediate.

Weighing 7 pounds 13 ounces, the guitar strikes a comfortable balance, substantial enough to feel solid while remaining easy to play for extended sessions. It comes housed in a hardshell case, ready to accompany you wherever your music takes you.

The Duesenberg Starplayer TV in Midnight Flake is more than a striking visual statement. It is a refined, expressive instrument that blends timeless design with modern reliability, offering a voice that is as inspiring as its appearance.
