Manufacturer's Description for Fender FR50CE Resonator Guitar

For great amplified resonator tone, our FR-50 CE is the perfect choice. It's the same great resonator as our tried-and-true FR-50, but with the additions of a cutaway and a dual pickup system.

The FR-50 CE features a Telecaster guitar pickup in the neck position and a Fishman Resonator pickup-coupled with a Fishman power jack-letting you go stereo and send each pickup to a different amp. It also features two independent volume controls and a tone control.

4.5 out of 5 (57 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Love and Jazz"
Sound: Sound is very nice, but to low for resonator guitar. I expect much louder guitar in unpluged way. Pickups make thing better when it is amplifired. Tele pickup has nice and worm tone, but instead acoustic strings which comes with guitar I put there electric Ernie Ball strings with wounded G string. With those strings bass strings sound much better when guitar is pluged. Piezzo is ok, but you should not use it over the half of power becouse if you open it too much sounds too crispy and like to have bad feedback. Feature: The best feature is combination of magnetic and piezzo pickup and possibilitie to split output to two different amps. Ease of Use: It is very easy and intuitive to use. Two volume pots and one tone pot connected to the magnetic pickup. Problem could be with pot knobs which have no numeric scale on it, so you have to be experienced to control sound changes on stage. Guitar is very comfortable to play in ergomic way (for me). Action is perfect to combine slide with fingering. Quality: It is cheap instrument crafted with cheap materials, so expectation should not be very high, but this instrument is very nice and well done. There is a small problems with resonator. In some positions appears some buzzing, but nothing what cannot be set well in one hour. Value: I pay it less than 500 euros in Thomann, so it is quite good price for such instrument Manufacturer Support: Do not need it The Wow Factor: If I don't want it I wouldn't buy it. Overall: Hard to say, but i expect long time. Of course I would like to have one National, but it is to expensive for me, so Fender is good enough now.

"A DOBRO THAT WON'T GIVE YOU THE BLUES"
Sound: I've seen this dobro a number of times and have heard it being played. It sounds great. Although I haven't gotten the chance to play it myself, I know that once I do...I'll have to have one. Quality: This is a beautiful instrument. The detailed workmanship is some of the best I've ever seen. It would be hard, if not impossible to find a more well crafted instrument for the money. The Wow Factor: Oh yeah, this thing has "sex appeal" written all over it! Overall: I couldn't see myself ever wanting to replace this dobro with another one, unless someone stole it. Then I'd want the same one again.
Style of Music: Mostly country
