The Duesenberg Fairytale Lap Steel is the epitome of innovation and craftsmanship, designed for the discerning musician who craves a blend of classic tones and modern versatility. Built with a korina body and neck, this lap steel is both lightweight and resonant, delivering a rich sound that is both clear and full-bodied. The black anodized aluminum fingerboard ensures smooth playability, allowing you to glide effortlessly from note to note.

At the heart of the Fairytale's sonic prowess are its proprietary Duesenberg pickups: a GrandVintage humbucker at the bridge for sharp, cutting tones, and a SingleTwin Domino P-90 at the neck, offering warm, creamy sounds free of hum. The Multibender bridge system is a standout feature, enabling intuitive pitch bends with adjustable levers, perfect for creating unique chord transitions or melodic flourishes. This system can be expanded for even more creative possibilities.

For the adventurous player, the integrated easy-shift capo allows for quick key changes, making it a versatile instrument for any setlist. The speed pot, with its reduced 70-degree angle, enables expressive tone swells with ease, ensuring your performance is as dynamic as your creativity.

Complementing its technical excellence, the Fairytale Lap Steel boasts Duesenberg's trademark geometrical 3-stepped styling and a luxurious finish, making it as visually striking as it is sonically impressive.
