Classic Resonator Power and Twang Meet Top-notch Fender Quality
Though initially designed to meet the volume needs of gigging guitarists and bandleaders, the twangy, metallic tone of resonator guitars became a staple of genres like bluegrass, country, and various Hawaiian styles. Nearly a century has passed since their inception, and artists of all kinds continue turning to resonator guitars for everything from contemporary blues and folk to lap steel playing and beyond. Fender's PR-180E Resonator guitar equips you with that coveted power and one-of-a-kind sound at a great price, optimized with a spider resonator cone and modern-day electronics for perfect playability on stage and in the studio. An all-mahogany body lays a warm and full tonal foundation for the onboard Fishman electronics, amplifying this resonator's natural woody voice with exceptional results. For classic dobro tones at a great price, the Fender PR-180E Resonator is a no-brainer.
