Royall TMP12SQ/NI Tampa Square Tricone Resonator 12-Fret – Bell Brass, Squareneck, Nickel Finish, Softcase

The Royall TMP12SQ/NI Tampa Square is a 12-fret squareneck resonator guitar designed for lap steel players. This tricone features three hand-spun 6” aluminum cones that deliver a rich, deep tone with plenty of sustain. The bell-brass body with a polished nickel finish not only looks impressive but also delivers a tone full of character and nuance. The fingerboard extends further toward the body for accurate intonation of high notes, ideal for slide use.

This squareneck is built for horizontal play and comes with flatwound strings for a smooth, flowing slide sound. The Wilkinson tuners are adjusted for optimal use in the lap steel position. As with all Royall resonators, the resonator cones are hand-spun in the in-house workshop, and each instrument is professionally tuned. The Tampa Square comes with a lightweight soft case.
