Its innovation on countless aspects from the integrated capo nut down to the versatile Multibender bridge system leaves this lapsteel without competition.
"The minute I picked up the Duesenberg Lapsteel I was hooked.
This is a lapsteel that is a complete joy to play,
even if you've never picked up a slide before."
- John Mayer
The GrandVintage Humbucker in the bridge position delivers a cutting and balanced tone while the hum-cancelling SingleTwin P90 in the neck position is perfectly suited for smooth and warm melodies.
The Multibender is an integrated string bending device that can be configured to do a number of different things.
It is used for bending specific strings up or down a semi- or full tone, all done with the heel of your hand while playing. This comes in handy for changing chords from minor to major or all kinds of other intervals. The Multibender takes up to five levers (additional levers available seperately) which can all be set up to do different things.
The Fairytale comes with our genuine speed-pot as tone control. This pot operates at a reduced 70° angle allowing you to create tone swells with your fingertip.
