Royall WE14/NI
bell brass body single cone resonator WEST END, 14 frets, etched nickel finish, with brown faux leather soft case.
This iconic resonator guitar not only has the looks, it also has the authentic sound you would expect from a high-end guitar. The bell-brass body will deliver a very warm and sweet, yet loud tone. This tone makes it suitable for a wide range of music styles, not just blues or Hawaiian.
The 14 fret neck joint will allow you to play in the higher positions with ease. The mahogany neck with the 46 mm wide nut is comfortable to play and the set-up is done in the Royall workshop to have great playability with fingers and bottle neck alike.
Royall resonator guitars are handmade by a small team of craftsmen in California with many years of experience. All resonator cones are handmade in the Royall workshop and all instruments are played and checked by professional players before shipping.
