Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good

We're always happy to see a Duesenberg walk through our door and the Caribou is a prime example of why! The retro stylings on an amazing offset body make this guitar stand out in any crowd, and the chambered body will make sure it's heard clearly too. A slim D neck + the Deluxe Tremola make this a dream to play while the HSS layout (made ONLY in 2013!) gives you total tonal control and plenty of room to work with. If you haven't experienced a Duesenberg yet, there's no better starting point than the Caribou!

SP Luthier Notes: Fret Dress & Setup

From Duesenberg Guitars

THE CARIBOU IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. MADE FOR ARTISTS SEEKING THE EXCEPTIONAL.

It is made from solid alder in which we route extra large sound chambers. These sound chambers give the Caribou a uniquely direct, yet open voice that feels at home in any genre.

The body is then fitted with a flat maple top for the Narvik Blue and Black color options and classic swamp-ash for the Butterscotch version. All models feature a classy cream binding around the body and one-piece maple neck, Duesenberg Cat-Eye F-Hole and an award winning set of pickups.
