Description
The Airline Lap Steel Pro is the upgraded/no-compromise version of our ever-popular Airline Lap Steel model.
What makes it ‘Pro’? (We hear you ask…)
Apart
from upgraded components throughout and the use of a rosewood board
over the plastic board found on the ‘Standard’ model, the pièce de
résistance of the Pro is the inclusion of the Valco® Lap Steel
‘String-Thru’ pickup.
A replica of the original 50s Valco® Lap
Steel pickup, made famous by Ry Cooder and found in his iconic Fender
‘Coodercaster’, the pickup features a unique ‘string through’ humbucking
design that maintains the tonal qualities of a single-coil with a
high-output, while eliminating hum and increasing natural sustain. The
pickup features Alnico 3 magnets with independently adjustable pole
pieces.
