Duesenberg Alliance Series Johnny Depp Electric Guitar

Description

TELL A STORY

When we first met Johnny to talk about a personal guitar for him, we told him that we wanted to build one which not only suits his style and needs but one which tells a story. His story.

Being one of the most in-demand actors of the past 25 years, and best known for his character Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of Caribbean movies, we have designed his iconic guitar in the Duesenberg tradition by telling Johnny’s story from his tattoos. Each one symbolizes a significant event in his life.

CHAMBERED CONSTRUCTION

A solid body that features big sound chambers for enhanced tone and weight reduction. Particularly characteristic tone somewhere between a solid and semi-hollow construction.

JD-63 P90 PICKUP

A single P90 pickup in the bridge position has always been a clear indication of a straight foward rock guitar. We have developed a completely new pickup for this Alliance Series. Read more on the JD-63 pickup below

PLEK PROCESSED

A pleked fretboard guarantees perfectly level frets. This is the basis for our fret polishing and setup work all done by hand that eventually makes our instruments play like nothing you have ever played before
