Duesenberg Starplayer CBR - Transparent Orange

The Starplayer CBR brings fresh energy to the Duesenberg lineup—a chambered design that feels alive in your hands and a tone that’s as fiery as its finish. With its five versatile pickup settings and sleek new tremolo, the CBR is more than an update—it’s an evolution.

The Duesenberg Starplayer CBR in Vintage Orange reimagines the iconic Starplayer design for a new tonal frontier. With its chambered mahogany body, flat flamed maple top, and newly designed Diamond Prestige Tremola, this guitar blends the warmth of classic rock tones with Duesenberg’s unmistakable sparkle and precision craftsmanship.

Built in Germany, the CBR stands as a distinct evolution of the Starplayer family—refined, responsive, and ready to take your sound to the edge of the galaxy.

The Vintage Orange finish glows like a solar flare—bright, fiery, and full of retro charm. Its transparent tone shows off the flamed maple top, while the brown-tinted mahogany back adds depth and warmth. Cream binding ties the design together with timeless Duesenberg elegance. This is vintage inspiration meeting cosmic style—a perfect fit for stage lights and studio sessions alike.

The Starplayer CBR retains the signature Duesenberg semi-hollow feel but introduces a chambered solid mahogany body for a tighter, more focused tonal response. Paired with a flat maple top and one-piece maple neck, the result is a sound that’s warm and powerful, yet articulate and open—perfect for everything from blues to modern rock.

With Duesenberg’s new Flextone+ 5-way wiring, the CBR delivers five unique pickup combinations that expand your tonal universe. Alongside the classic three positions, two additional in-between settings offer fresh, versatile sounds that make this model stand out among its peers.

The pairing of a Domino P90 in the neck and a GrandVintage Humbucker at the bridge creates a balanced tonal palette—smooth and creamy in one moment, cutting and bold in the next. Whether you’re chasing vintage crunch or clean celestial clarity, this guitar responds with precision.

The newly designed Diamond Prestige Tremola features a refined flat-arm design for effortless expression and unparalleled stability. It’s smooth, responsive, and built to last—a perfect example of Duesenberg’s commitment to engineering beauty and function in perfect harmony.
