NGD: Duesenberg Paloma

Post by SimpleSi »

So - this has been on my wish-list since they announced the model. :clap:

It's Stratty like but a bit thicker tone-wise.

Theres a video on the instagram link above of the 4 pickup positions. Neck, 2, 3 and Bridge.

Here's an album of the guitar.

The pictures don't do the finish justice.

Plays better than my Starplayer TV.



ONLY complaint - I keep hitting the middle pickup with my pick because I usually only play 2 pickup guitars. :lol: - Learning curve../

I love Doozy wobble sticks. And that sparkly beast would make a welcome change from a Strat.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

made for a pleasant change from the Caribou I had.

I found the Starplayer and Caribou sounded pretty much the same plugged in.

Conway took the Caribou back via a trade and I sold off the traded guitar to afford this.

Whole thing ended up costing around $3500 after gst etc. - cheaper than my Starplayer

Look how polished those frets are. Doozy QC is superb. Congrats.
