Duesenberg Starplayer CBR Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar - Transparent Orange

Duesenberg Starplayer CBR Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar – Transparent Orange | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls

The Duesenberg Starplayer CBR is a roots-inspired reimagining of one of the brand's most iconic models — a chambered semi-hollowbody that bridges the golden age of electric guitar building with the demands of the modern performing musician. A flame maple top over a chambered mahogany body delivers the harmonic depth and resonant warmth of a hollowbody with the feedback resistance and sustain of a solidbody construction, while a Domino P-90 and Grand Vintage humbucker cover the full spectrum of semi-hollow sonics from creamy cleans to biting overdrive. In Transparent Orange with art deco-inspired aesthetics and all-Duesenberg proprietary hardware throughout, the Starplayer CBR is a decidedly 21st-century 6-string that looks and sounds unlike anything else on the market.

Product Overview

The Starplayer CBR is built on a meticulously chambered mahogany body topped with a flame maple cap — a construction approach that enriches the guitar's natural harmonic depth and resonance while keeping feedback under control in high-gain and live performance settings. The chambered architecture reduces overall weight relative to a fully solid mahogany body while allowing the instrument to breathe acoustically, producing the open, three-dimensional tone character that makes semi-hollowbody guitars so compelling. The PUR lacquer finish in Transparent Orange reveals the flame maple top's natural figure beneath a deep, glassy coat that captures the eye under any lighting. At 9.05 lbs., the Starplayer CBR carries satisfying mass for sustain and presence without becoming unwieldy on stage.

The mahogany neck is joined via set neck construction for enhanced resonance transfer and sustain, and wears a Classic D profile that feels comfortable and adaptable across a wide range of playing styles. The Indian rosewood fingerboard runs a compound radius from 12" to 14" — a gentle curve in the lower positions for comfortable chord voicings that flattens progressively through the upper register for clean, effortless string bends at the 22 jumbo frets. The set neck joint and compound radius fingerboard together create a playing experience that feels refined and considered at every position on the neck.

Duesenberg's newly designed Diamond Prestige Tremola — a flat-armed tremolo unit with expressive, smooth action — anchors the hardware suite alongside a 3-point radius bridge with steel saddles and the brand's proprietary Z-Tuners at 18:1 ratio. The Flextone+ 5-way blade switching system unlocks a wide range of pickup combinations between the Domino P-90 single-coil at the neck and the Grand Vintage humbucker at the bridge, giving the Starplayer CBR the switching flexibility to move fluidly between vintage-tinged single-coil character and full-bodied humbucking output. Master Volume and Tone controls keep the signal path clean and straightforward.

• Blues, jazz, and rock players drawn to the rich harmonic depth and tonal complexity of semi-hollowbody construction

• Players inspired by the golden age of electric guitar design who want a modern instrument built to those same standards of craft
• Collectors and serious guitarists in Idaho Falls seeking a visually striking boutique semi-hollowbody with genuine European pedigree

Key Features

Chambered Mahogany Body with Flame Maple Top The meticulously chambered mahogany body maximizes sustain and harmonic depth while controlling feedback — a construction balance that gives the Starplayer CBR the resonant warmth of a hollowbody and the performance reliability of a solidbody. The flame maple top adds brightness, articulation, and natural visual beauty beneath the Transparent Orange PUR lacquer finish.

Domino P-90 and Grand Vintage Humbucker Duesenberg's in-house Domino P-90 at the neck delivers creamy cleans and raw, biting dirt with the mid-forward, articulate character the P-90 format has always excelled at. The Grand Vintage humbucker at the bridge oscillates between aggressive humbucking output and smooth, snappy clean tones, and the Flextone+ 5-way blade switch opens up blended voices between the two for a comprehensive tonal range.

Diamond Prestige Tremola Duesenberg's newly designed Diamond Prestige Tremola features a flat arm profile and smooth, expressive action — engineered in-house to the same precision standards as all Duesenberg hardware, with reliable pitch return that keeps the guitar in tune through extended tremolo use.

Set Neck with Compound Radius Fingerboard The mahogany set neck joint promotes enhanced sustain and resonance transfer from neck to body, while the 12"–14" compound radius Indian rosewood fingerboard provides a playing surface that transitions naturally from chord-friendly curvature to lead-friendly flatness — supporting virtually any playing style with ease.

Art Deco-Inspired Design Throughout From the singlecut body contours to the proprietary hardware and Transparent Orange finish, every visual element of the Starplayer CBR reflects Duesenberg's commitment to distinctive, cultured aesthetics rooted in art deco design tradition — a guitar that commands attention from any audience.
