I am selling this guitar purely because I need the cash, it is an amazing instrument and deserves a good home. If you've played a Duesenberg, you are aware of their unique qualities: the P-90 like neck pick up, the vibrato arm, etc. This guitar really shines when both pickups are engaged. That produces a sound I have not encountered elsewhere, incredibly unique and powerful tone. I bought the guitar brand new from a reputable local dealer with an incredible stock of products and quite a few Duesenbergs. This one was, in my opinion, the best of the bunch. I've only owned it a few months and it has just been something I've fiddled with around the house. It's very lightly used and has no scratches, dents or blemishes. It's stayed mostly in it's case, in a temperature control practice space. If you have any additional questions or concerns please feel free to contact me, I'd be happy to answer anything.  If you want a practically brand new guitar at a discounted price from a very meticulous and picky previous owner (me) get to know this guitar.
