I have a trade offer for a Duesenberg Mike Campbell Signature Model(Click on "Hollowbody-Guitars"). Does anyone here know anything about these guitars? Thanks.

High quality retro-styled European guitars with an impressive endorsee line-up. They deserve to do well, but I guess that they are not cheap in the USA given the current exchange rate. They do a lap Steel which is the tits.

Possibly the Mosrite for the Duesy and some cash. It's the person I bought the Mosrite from originally. Sound familiar, TJ? :p

Thanks, Paul. I heard they were quality guitars, but I was looking for some additional feedback.

Well then you heard right, they are fine guitars. But don't take my word for it, or anyone else's. If the instrument speaks to you that's all the validation it could possibly need. You don't need a bunch of online guitar geeks telling you any different.

Thanks, Paul. But for the price, I wanted to know more about the quality of the guitar. My understanding is the parts are made in Korea and possibly elsewhere, then assembled in Germany. But quality is quality no matter where the parts are made.

The lap steel looks way cool...but to be honest (IMHO) there aren't many makes that they haven't copied...Gibson, Rickenbacker, Gretch, Hofner, Zemaitis, etc.
Granted, they look well made and the Plek treatment certainly helps, I'm sure they're good guitars...whatever floats your boat I guess...

My 360 has the toasters. I really would like to get a 481 with the slanted frets.
