Imperial Royal Hawaiian Limited Edition Weissenborn Style Lap Steel Guitar

This is theImperial Valley Guitars Royal Hawaiian Limited Edition, the flagship of Imperial Guitar's fleet. The Royal Hawaiian Limited Edition is built on Imperial's original innovation, the extra deep body, and features all of their best options. The LTD was introduced two years ago as a special deluxe limited edition of their Extra Deep Standard but it has become so popular that it has replaced the Standard model entirely. One of its great features is the premium Fishman Sonicore under saddle pickup with Fishman's excellent Presys+ preamp system. This system features 4 bands of EQ as well as a notch filter for feedback busting and a phase switch, which is another tonal variable that is useful for adding extra fullness at low volumes. The + part of Presys+ is the built-in tuner, always handy in any case, but especially if you're going to be changing tunings in the middle of a set. The Royal Hawaiian Limited Edition features all of Imperial's newest deluxe features: • Top, back and sides are all Sapele Mahogany • Top is solid Sapele, back and sides are laminated Sapele • Original Weissenborn style rope binding on top, back and neck • Bound headstock with rosewood overlay • Mahogany fingerboard with inlaid pearl diamond position markers • Andaman Padouk Mustache bridge • Superb high ratio gold "violin" tuners with ebony buttons • Fishman Presys+ pickup/preamp system • Custom fitted extra deep hard shell case As with Imperial's other limited editions, there are no options. The Royal Hawaiian Limited Edition comes with everything they've got, including the Fishman Presys+ pickup system and a custom fit extra deep hard shell case.

Features: • Extra deep body and hollow neck for increased volume and resonance • All hand selected African mahogany top, back, sides and neck • Traditional rope binding on the top, back, fingerboard and headstock • Rosewood fingerboard with maple markings • Rosewood mustache bridge • High ratio gold and ebony "violin" tuners • Fishman Presys+ pickup system • Pearl diamond inlays • Custom fit extra deep hardshell case included
