Pomona 6

The first Duesenberg lapsteel guitar - made of solid mahogany, equipped with two humbucking pickups, an integrated capodaster and the latest version of our famous Multibender system.

The freely configurable Multibender is operated with the heel of the hand. Up to six levers (one per string) are mountable, which allow you to either raise or lower the notes on the individual strings to a preset setting.

Furthermore, the integrated capo, which runs along a track on the anodized black aluminum fretboard, enables freedom of movement between all keys without sacrificing the typical lapsteel riffs and licks that rely on open strings.

A roll nut provides tuning stability, while Duesenberg LittleToaster pickups deliver a clear and powerful sound that goes excellently well with distortion pedals or distorting amps. And the Duesenberg Speed pot controls work with a path of just 70˚ in order to achieve the lapsteel's typical swelling “wah” effects.


The Fairytale is a solid mahogany body, dual pickup Lapsteel Guitar, featuring an integrated capodaster and our brilliant Multibender bridge system. It is the next generation Lapsteel guitar, sporting some improvements over our Pomona 6 Lapsteel introduced in 2008.
Fairytale lapsteel with Goldburst finish and many improved details, like the newest generation of the Duesenberg Multibender, the integrated capodaster, a new pickup combination with the new SingleTwin Domino hum-cancelling singlecoil and our GrandVintage humbucker Steve,

The Alamo is a solid Korina body dual singlecoil pickup Lapsteel Guitar featuring an integrated capodaster and our brilliant Multibender bridge system.
Being the third lapsteel in the Duesenberg catalog, the Alamo seems to be the Wild One! It sports not only the reknowned Duesenberg Multibender, which gives you pedalsteel like bendings, but also the integrated Easy Shift capodaster and a very dynamic duo of Duesenberg Vintage Trouble singlecoil pickups.

Haven’t ran into string breaks. Recommend Duesenberg strings with “D” tuning.
