DUESENBERG

“Unusually thin 35mm sides make the big body Fullerton Elite extremely easy to handle on stage.  The arched spruce top is combined with bent sides and arched back made from flamed maple and is perfected with a deluxe 5-ply cream binding around the body.  As with almost any other Duesenberg, the Elite sports a one-piece neck made from American Hardrock Maple which is fitted with a 12” rosewood fretboard.

The Elite brings a unique pickup combination, which opens up a new range of Duesenberg driven tone.  For the bridge position, we took our GrandVintage Humbucker, giving you great transparency and warmth right out of the case.  This pickup is accompanied by our SingleTwin Domino noiseless singlecoil at the neck, providing you with just the right mix of attack and open tone you would expect from a classic P90 type pickup.” – From the Duesenberg Website

This particular guitar is a terrific example of the union of form and function.  While it clearly looks sharp, its semi-hollow construction and clever pickup compliment give it a sound to match.  The bridge humbucker gives you all all the treble snap and attack you could possibly want without ever become piercing or thin, and the PH-90 at the neck provides a fatness and warmth that never strays in to muddiness.  The middle position is a veritable sweet spot in that it retains the finer elements of each pickup, and is wholly better than the sum of its parts; round, warm and full, while articulate, chimey, and shimmering.  A true joy to play, this Fullerton Elite would be a good choice for players of any style looking for an instrument that looks as cool as it sounds.
