The SLAPEROO™ is hand-crafted right down to the custom pickups! We even build our own coil-winding machinery.

The robust all-metal construction (ok, it does have a rubber foot), makes the instrument virtually indestructible and maintenence-free.(Running it over with the tour bus is not recommended, though it would probabily survive). An occasional application of high-quality paste-wax is all that's recommended.

The blue anodized finish is extremely durable and should provide many years of trouble-free use. The strap is made from high-carbon steel designed to handle 2000-pounds of tension.

An internal mechanism provides the high-pressure needed to tension the strap. This tension is adjusted using the large nut on top of the instrument. The SLAPEROO™ can be open-tuned to almost any key.

The SLAPEROO™ is built to be played aggressively or softly, limited only by the player's imagination.
