The Duesenberg Starplayer TV – Blue Sparkle is a standout semi-hollow electric guitar that fuses classic elegance with modern engineering, crafted for musicians who demand both aesthetic brilliance and tonal versatility. With its shimmering Blue Sparkle top and art-deco-inspired design, this instrument turns heads before you even play a note—but it's the exceptional feel and sound that will keep you hooked.

At the heart of the Starplayer TV is a semi-hollow body featuring bent sides, a laminated spruce top, and a sustain block that provides enhanced resonance and feedback control. Its body measures 46 x 34 cm (18.11" x 13.38") with a side height of 4.5 cm (1.8"), offering a comfortable yet substantial feel. The Trans-Black finish on the back and sides contrasts beautifully with the high-gloss Blue Sparkle top, which is treated with a durable Polyester lacquer, ensuring stage-worthy durability and a dazzling appearance. A cream binding and an eye-catching black/gold sparkle pickguard or nickel-plated brass (depending on the model) complete the elegant visual presentation.

The neck of the Starplayer TV is a set 1-piece maple construction, ensuring excellent sustain and stability. Its comfortable Medium D profile and precise dimensions—21 mm (0.8") at the 1st fret and 24 mm (0.95") at the 12th—make for a smooth playing experience that caters to both rhythm and lead players. A 305 mm (12") radius Indian rosewood fingerboard with cream dot inlays offers effortless playability across the 25.5" (648 mm) scale length, and 22 jumbo frets (2.8 x 1.0 mm) provide a powerful feel for expressive bends and fluid runs. The steel dual-action truss rod allows fine-tuned neck adjustment for optimal setup.

Electronics on the Starplayer TV are a masterclass in tonal balance. The Duesenberg Domino P90 in the neck delivers warm, articulate single-coil tones with rich mids, while the GrandVintage Humbucker in the bridge brings vintage-voiced power and clarity. Combined with a simple yet effective three-way pickup selector, and independent volume and tone controls, this guitar covers a wide sonic territory—from jazzy cleans and classic rock crunch to modern blues and beyond.

Hardware includes premium Duesenberg Z-Tuners for precise and stable tuning, and the innovative Diamond Deluxe Tremola system for smooth vibrato action and rock-solid tuning stability. The steel saddle bridge and nickel hardware finish further emphasize quality and durability. Duesenberg's custom 10-50 gauge strings are perfectly matched to this instrument’s build, delivering a balanced and dynamic feel straight out of the case.

Whether you're a vintage tone aficionado, a stage performer looking for show-stopping aesthetics, or a studio player in need of exceptional versatility, the Duesenberg Starplayer TV – Blue Sparkle is a world-class instrument that blends German engineering precision with timeless musical soul.
