MULTI-TONE CONTROLThe Multi-Tone pot enables you to filter specific frequencies out of the pickup signal while also splitting the coils. It operates from a tactile middle stop position of the tone pot giving you both, a regular tone-blend and also a coil-tap. |

PLEK PROCESSEDA 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. |
THE MOST AFFORDABLE STARPLAYER YET
The Starplayer Special combines a variety of different approaches to form an instrument which is both high quality but also affordable. Its Alder body is contoured for premium looks and playability and then fitted with a bolt-on maple neck. This combination presents exceptional sound and clarity which brings sweet thick tones and long sustain. Our bolt on maple neck and rosewood fingerboard deliver a distinctive attack and clarity not usually associated with this body type.
The Starplayer Special delivers everything you need from a good instrument.
PREMIUM PICKUPS
THE STARPLAYER SPECIAL BRINGS PREMIUM PICKUPS NO DIFFERENT FROM ALL OTHER DUESENBERGS.
The mounted GrandVintage pickup - in combination with the slightly higher output CrunchBucker - delivers penetrating and powerful rock sound. The Multi-Tone control extends the possibilities beyond that with endless blend options and singlecoil tones.
FOR THE COLORFUL
The Starplayer Special comes in a variety of different colors that set it apart from the crowd. You can chose between two opaque, two metallic and two sparkle colors.
All variants feature a satin-finished maple neck and rosewood fretboard. The headstock front is always finished in high-gloss black.
