STARPLAYER BASS


The Starplayer Bass was designed to complement the overall construction of our Starplayer TV model. It is a short scale semi-hollow bass delivering rich and deep bottom end.

  • SEMI-HOLLOW CONSTRUCTION
    Semi-Hollow instruments deliver a unique and open response that cannot be compared to the sound of a Solid-Body construction. Our specialised construction additionally blocks most feedback and keeps you going even on high gain levels.
  • BASSBUCKER PICKUPS
    Two of our Bassbucker Pickups will give you clear and rich overtones and crisp response in any situation. Seperate volume controls for each Pickup and a master tone dial allow you to blend the pickups to your preferred setting.
  • PLEK PROCESSED
    A 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.

FUNDAMENTAL BASS

The Starplayer Bass builds on the overall construction of our popular Starplayer TV model. Therefore, the Starplayer Bass is made from spruce for the arched top, flamed maple for the back and bent sides and American Hardrock Maple for the neck topped off with a 12" Indian Rosewood fretboard.

It comes in three special finishes. Vintage Orange, All Black and our famous, tolex-covered Outlaw finish.


SWITCH IT ON...
OR OFF.

The Starplayer Bass was designed with studio musicians in mind. The two separate volume controls for each pickup let you choose between endless blend options of both pickups. If you need to go dead silent in the studio, a small switch on the pickguard lets you switch off the bass completely without loosing your pickup blend setting.


NICKEL HARDWARE
MOST OF OUR HARDWARE IS NICKEL FINISHED.

You will find the geometrical three steps in almost every part on our instruments, from the curves on the headstock to the shape of the output jack.

When compared to regular chrome finishes, nickel has a beautiful warm and elegant sheen and ages naturally over time. It's the way things were done before chrome became the standard. If you don't want the hardware on your instrument to age, we recommend regular cleaning.


MADE TO HOLD SOMETHING THAT LASTS
A GOOD CASE IS ONE THAT'S MORE STURDY THAN WHAT'S INSIDE.

Handsome, laid-back and simply a good place for your instrument. Meet the Duesenberg Custom Line Cases. True flightcase quality, classically shaped, beautifully handcrafted and made to endure the most realistic and unrealistic abuses. It's a case you can just throw in the back of a car, train or airplane and won't have to worry about.
This instrument comes including the Duesenberg Custom Line Case as standard.
