    Unlike some guitars rsonnateur, its use is not limited to slide away from l. The agreements are simple and the solos. The strings are close to the handle, all is very well rgl.

    SOUNDS

    Trs good sound for blues, the blues specially the south.
    the Młoda are also made with a natural rverbration quite enjoyable.
    However, do not expect the sharpness in the sound, it is not an Ovation.
    But sure, the guitar is heard.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had 18 months.
    It is idalie for the blues, and usable for Młoda (thanks its natural rverbration)
    In this price range, it has no concurrency.
    Competition, without naming it, is to use less enjoyable, to finish well back and the draft.
    At the exprience, I would do the same choice. I choose can be the MODEL, latest issue, with notches and a bridge pickup, but more expensive.

    F50 base, black, without a microphone and run classic.

    UTILIZATION

    I took me home Addario 16/60, F50 on a normal run (not squareneck). It's really to play slide, but it sounds strong and not be afraid to attack cordes.J 've placed Piezo Sensor (2) on the cone, a jack, an equalizer, and it works. Well, a microphone or a specific sensor would be much better (see Mike Lewis) but hey, the piezo cost anything.

    SOUNDS

    It sounds good dobro.Avec a Bottle Neck a little heavy brass, there are more bodies. I Esay the BN ceramic, and glass is very chaud.Le better suited to electric. You must try the BN of different materials that greatly influence the sound. In addition there are …

    Made in china, it is the FR-50 any color sunburst acoustic. Wicker covers laminated spruce top and mahogany back and laminated rsonateur type spider.
    Dj t everything said about Prior CHARACTERISTICS ...
    My MODEL is a roundneck (like that of a traditional folk).

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is trs end, may be too much.
    Access in acute is not easy but it is a dobro, so ....
    Ergonomics, I would call average: The PSE rsonateur Obviously the weight and the guitar is small (the size of a classical guitar). Sitting (or even flat), but no problem standing in the weight belt is poorly rpart ... but hey, the more it is a Callback Service dobro ;-)
    Rglant in the NEC and changing strings…

    Rglant in the NEC and changing strings, so we get a direct its very satisfactory!

    SOUNDS

    Fender cr l trs a versatile instrument: the guitar may equally well be used as a folk (in rhythm or picking) that as a dobro ...
    Thus the purists will probably dtest, but for my part I rather like the concept: it's pretty indict.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I possde past ten days, compared with a Dobro Hounddog and "biscuit" of Epiphone ... I have chosen to empty more versatility.
    The pros: not too bad RULES original, versatile, well finished trs for a guitar of this price.
    The -: Got my neck too thin, mechanical little prcises

    Having bought 280 new on sale I found the report qualitprix trs almost good (almost to mcaniques is to really "cheap").

    With the exprience and the current state, so probably I would do the same choice: to try to slide while keeping a fairly versatile instrument, made trs fine.
