Duesenberg Senior Blond

Clean design. Dirty tone.

Stripped-down, yet surprisingly versatile. The single SPLIT/KING pickup at the bridge delivers three totally different tonal options.

Raw tone has never been better.

Simplicty and elegance have found a new home. The Senior focuses on everything you need for a raw and punchy rock tone but it also has some tricks up its sleeve.

Our newly developed Split/King pickup allows you to extend the tonal range of this single pickup guitar to reach completely new levels of versatility.

CHAMBERED BODY
Large sound chambers deliver a lighter and more resonant guitar compared to a regular solidbody construction.

SPLIT/KING PICKUP
The single Split/King pickup at the bridge offers three sound options: true Singlecoil, true Humbucker and a combination of both.

PLEK PROCESSED
The specially designed Duesenberg Plek process guarantees a perfectly playable instrument in all situations.

Split/King Pickup

The Duesenberg designed Split/King pickup can switch between real humbucker and real singlecoil mode. But it is not the splittable humbucker you might expect.
It actually houses a real singlecoil which can be extended to a full humbucker with a second, specially designed coil to actually deliver the best of both worlds.
As a third option, the pickup can be set into an in between mode where both coils are mixed in a special way to give you even more flexibilty.

The mode can be selected with the 3-position rotary pickup switch at the cutaway while the elegant "Phonico" pickup cover continues our vision of truly independent hardware design.
