Serial #: 064580, dated 9/25/06

Body size at lower bout: 13". Scale length: 25 1/2" Nut Width: 1 10/16"

Materials: Solid 22 fret American maple neck; American alder body; solid rosewood fingerboard with 12" radius.

Hardware: Hardware includes custom Duesenberg-DP90 and Grand Vintage Humbucking pickups; tunematic bridge; master volume and tone knobs; beveled 3-ply pickguard; Duesenberg 16x1 tuners; double-acting truss rod; Duesenberg aluminum tremelo bar.

Notes: The Duesenberg Double Cat is an innovative guitar, with a compact, stylish semi-hollow body distinctly lighter than conventional solid bodies, and permitting unimpeded access to the entire range of the 22 fret fingerboard. This contemporary classic adds vintage touches with '50's style design coupled with high-precision German craftsmanship.

With a hollow tone chamber body of American alder finished in gleaming black, the DC weighs in at just 5lb 15oz. with excellent balance on the shoulder or lap. A P-90 style single coil pickup is positioned at the neck and a vintage design humbucker at the bridge, making the Double Cat a highly versatile instrument for the working performer. A hard-to find guitar on the vintage market, this example is virtually unplayed, and comes complete with original tags and accessory kit.

Setup: Trussrod tension and neck relief adjusted; bridge height adjusted; bridge compensation set; bridge wheels and tuners lubricated; fingerboard and bridge oiled; body and neck cleaned and hand polished.

Case: Original black plush hardshell case.
