Royall Tri Cone 12 fret resonator CHESS CUTAWAY 12 SC
12 fret resonator CHESS CUTAWAY 12 SC, wooden body (okoume) brown sand finish, with softcase
Royall okoume body tricone resonator CHESS, 12th-fret neck joint with cutaway, brown finish, with softcase.
The tricone system in a wooden body gives you the complexity in tone from the three 6” cones which is combined with the earthier tone of the wooden body.
Playability is, as always spot on.
The luthiers that set up these instruments actually play resonator guitar. In the Royall workshop, the resonators are handspun to suit these instruments. Since this is the heart of the sound, the Royall handspun resonator cones make a huge difference.
This model is equipped with a SC Lipstick pickup.
