Lately I’ve been hankering for an affordable, round neck resonator guitar and I'm looking for suggestions. What kind of pie tins are you guys wielding?

I have an inexpensive Regal resonator. Fun for the bluzey, slide stuff.
Looks like this, but without the headstock inlay...

Found an old pic of it, on the wall...

That looks like a "Where's Waldo" picture. Find the Resonator (if you can)
I have a Busker MM Blues resonator.

I've been jonesing for one, too. I can't decide. Between round or square neck, but I know I want a pickup. Anyone got any experience with these amplified? For gigging, I've been thinking about one of these:

When I need a bluesy, slide track, done well, I want to record a resonator.
There's this guy I hire who's really, really great and....uh...oh, you wanted to find a guitar to play yourself, eh?
I got nothin',![]()

I like the looks of the all metal resos, but I think my playing style would require the wood body model. My ham-fisted, off-time, chord-pouding doesn't need to be accentuated with the all metal body.
same here - but I've been hankering for some time for a Trussart SteelPhonic...
and/or a Resogator....
of course both would have to wait until I get a goldie DGT in the family ;-)

I've had my eye on this one, haven't bought it yet....can't seem to pull the plug. Not badly priced and has good reviews: Gretsch Root Series G9220 Bobtail Round Neck Acoustic/Electric Resonator 2-Tone Sunburst![]()
I've got one of these: http://www.fender.com/series/folk/fr-50ce-resonator/
Very cool - it's got a Tele pickup and a piezo - pretty versatile.
You're never too old for tater tots.
That guitar makes me wanna play "Bad Seamstress Blues".

That Gretsch above looks cool. It'll probably need a set up, but I know some people who do that sort of thing.

If you get one, let us know how it goes.... maybe I can convince my wife this would be a good use of our tax refund. Also, perhaps PRS should make one!
I just ordered a Highway 61 from Republic Guitars, they are installing a Lace Ultra Slim humbucker and getting it shipped up to Alberta all for just shy of a grandLooking forward to seeing what it can do!

I was just talking gear with a co-worker and I told him I have a hankering for a Reso. He slapped me in the face and said "Snap out of it!".
