Duesenberg Starplayer TV Phonic in Black

Presenting the Duesenberg Starplayer TV Phonic in Black.

With the Starplayer TV Phonic, Duesenberg is continuing their vision of truly independent hardware design. 

The Phonic comes with the award-winning set of a GrandVintage humbucker for the bridge and Domino P90 for the neck position. The new 4-Way pickup selector allows you to choose between each pickup individually or two options of combining them. The first option lets both pickups run freely without touching the frequencies, while the second option filters certain frequencies to give your tone a unique and even more defined character.
The Starplayer TV Phonic is a bold statement for individuality.

The 4-Way switching works as follows:

• Switching counterclockwise to the first position, you get the bridge humbucker only.
• The next position clockwise is both pickups, but with a capacitor on this circuit so that if functions as a high-pass filter.
• Clicking clockwise again, you simply get both pickups together, without any tonal filtering.
• The final position clockwise, is the neck pickup alone.

The Radiator Vibrola System keeps everything that you love about the original Diamond Deluxe Vibrato and delivers it in a new and exciting design. Buttery smooth action, reliable tuning stability and string changes that are a breeze are just the main aspects of their unique vibrato design. Heavy duty needle and nylon bearings give you the highly responsive Duesenberg feel when using the vibrato arm. The arm itself can be turned freely for 360° and can be adjusted to your preferred angle and length. The strings are simply guided through the holes in the bar underneath the arm-axis and can be lead to the tuners without hassle.

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 their professional luthiers. The luthier responsible also leaves his or her signature inside the instrument.
