Duesenberg Alliance Joe Walsh Gold Burst

The Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh and Duesenberg teamed up to create an amazing Alliance/artist guitar. The great thing about it is that the design features many custom and unique elements tailored to Mr. Walsh, yet it’s a guitar that will appeal to many, whether you’re an Eagles fan or not. Above all, it stands out sonically from all other Duesenberg models, which is why the Joe Walsh signature model is one of the most popular Alliance models.

The body shape, specs, and overall dimensions are identical to those of the Starplayer Fullerton TV. However, the center-block hollow body (spruce top and flamed maple back and sides) is significantly thinner. The pickups are Duesenberg’s Single Twin (neck) and Little Toaster mini humbucker (bridge), and are unique to the Joe Walsh model. The specific characteristics of the body thickness, the pickup combination, and the 25.5" scale length on this guitar result in a very distinctive, bright, and spanky tone that is actually most reminiscent of a Tele sound. 

The many subtle yet beautiful details are perhaps the highlights of this guitar, such as the Morse code position markers (which spell out “Joe Walsh”), the pearloid-inlaid headstock, the Tibetan Knot decal between the pickups, and the gold/chrome mixed hardware. And let’s not forget the iconic Duesenberg Radiator Tremolo! Comes with the original case.
