i've had a hankering to get another resonator for a wee while now , the last one i had was cheap and nasty and sounded like crap and the chance came up today for a half decent one , i got a fender fr 50 for a song so here's a pic
i gave it a clean , a set of strings and gave the truss rod a slight adjustment and it's now bloody lovely cheers

Nice. The F holes are cool. I've never played a resonator but I like they way they sound. Do you always play them with a slide According the specs on the ones I've looked at online they have a square back neck. I can't imagine that is comfortable for fretting by hand.

hi and thanks guys , i'm lovin it , briese you can play them just like an acoustic if you want and detune them for slide playing also the the one i got today has a round neck , for normal playing style the square necked ones are for plying lap steel style , HTH , cheers
