The Starplayer TV has established itself as one of Duesenberg's flagship models: a modern semi-hollow inspired by classics but designed with a true engineering approach (luthiery, hardware, finishes) to meet current demands. The Ocean Flake version is part of a series of particularly refined finishes, with a strong visual identity and premium details (matching headstock on Flake series, nickel-plated hardware, specific binding and pickguards depending on the model).
This Duesenberg is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want an expressive, reliable instrument that is immediately "ready to play" in a band setting. Its versatility makes it very comfortable in rock, blues, pop, indie, americana, and modern jazz: it handles saturated tones without muddiness while retaining true dynamics in clean settings. The Sapphire Deluxe Tremola vibrato is ideal for subtle vibratos, breathing chords, and vintage inflections without turning the instrument into a "setup machine."
The semi-hollow body with sustain block offers a sought-after balance: more breadth and depth than a solid body, while maintaining control and precision when increasing gain. The laminated spruce top contributes to a clear attack and good projection, while the laminated flamed maple back and sides promote clarity, definition, and a very articulate high end. The f-holes enhance this organic and "alive" character that defines semi-hollows.
On the electronics side, the pair of Domino P90 (neck) and GrandVintage Humbucker (bridge) covers a wide range. The P90 delivers a round, mid-rich clean tone, perfect for phrasing and expressive chords. The bridge humbucker adds density, punch, and solid definition for riffs and leads. The 3-position selector switch offers a middle position with special wiring that reduces some bass frequencies from the humbucker for a more open, edgy, and very "rhythmic" sound. With 1 volume and 1 tone, the controls are straightforward and effective, serving the playing.
This Starplayer TV comes with Duesenberg Custom 010/050 strings: to maintain the original feel and balance (tension, vibrato, attack), a gauge of 010-050 is the safest choice when replacing strings. The included Custom Line Case is naturally the best solution for daily protection and transport.
