The Fazley RSN-30 is a characterful resonator guitar with a roundneck neck profile, ideal for players who want to use their fingers or a pick rather than a slide in lapsteel style. This guitar uses a single-cone resonator, where the bridge rests directly on an aluminium resonator cone. The non-slotted bridge saddle lets the strings sit freely on the saddle without being fixed in grooves. This allows the string vibrations to transfer more directly and fully to the biscuit and then to the resonator cone. The result is a direct, powerful tone with plenty of attack and a pronounced midrange—perfect for gritty blues riffs, expressive slide passages and rhythmic playing.
RSN-30: a versatile resonator
With its built-in EQ-7545 piezo preamp and extensive tone controls, the RSN-30 is also ready for amplified use on stage or in the studio. The foundation is a sapele body for a warm accent, while the cupronickel frets and chrome-plated steel bridge give this guitar a robust feel and a vintage look with modern reliability. Whether you’re after that unmistakable slide sound or simply want a guitar that stands out from the crowd—the Fazley RSN-30 delivers. A resonator guitar with character, tone and comfort in one.

This could be a good guitar. Its faults are enough for me not to want to keep it. If you know how to get the best out of it, then I think you'd be happy with its sound.
Build is good. Solid and robust all over, except the resonator, the machine heads, and the tailpiece, which give the impression of flimsy cheapness.
The set-up from the factory wasn't good. The action made it unplayable straight from the box. The neck was bowed way too much and needed adjustment. After that, the fret-board was perfect up to the 12th fret, but upwards from there the frets were wrongly sited, and as a consequence, they tuned sharp.
The electrics on this one, when they worked, sounded good. However, the circuitry inside the guitar kept cutting out without warning.
The factory installed strings weren't great, and whilst detuning the top E it broke.
I would recommend this thing highly if these niggles are addressed, or you are prepared for them and can sort them to your satisfaction. It sounds great unplugged and through an amp, and using the slide gave it authority.
For a guitar to arrive without attention to these details is a poor show. QC should be much better. That said, it's potentially a market-buster. I hope Fazley can make good on it- at the moment, it feels like a wasted opportunity.
nice body and neck the frets and fingerboard let it down the frets have been filed and left full of file marks so i had to sort that out and polish fretboard has chips out in places fret ends also need attention on the plus side bone nut and saddle!!
Have just received a b stock of these resonator guitars, and I must say very playable especially though my acoustic amp, yes probably paying a lot more will be necessary for the professional guitarist but this model is great value, I would certainly consider this brand in the future
Ik wqilde eens een nieuwe ervaring opdoen met een resonator. Gezien de prijs mag je van deze instap resonator niet al te hoge verwachtingen hebben, maar alles bij elkaar valt het niet tegen. Het bespelen er van is enigszins stroef, maar de klank is wel goed. Hier en daar wat dingen afstellen en bijwerken en het is een prima aankoop.

De Fazley RSN-30 roundneck is best wel een dingetje. Goed houtwerk en afwerking. Ik heb de frets iets afgetopt en de ietwat droge fretboard geolied. Tevens heb ik de brug zelf van inkepingen voorzien en de schroeven op het klankboard afgevijld. Pfff 30 minuten werk. Als dit in de productielijn, of waar dan ook, wordt gedaan kun je dit instrument veel hoger inschalen. Gitaar speelt prima. Verder prima advies en klantenbenadering vanuit Bax music.

Bought in the Rotterdam store for a very good price.
Fretboard is very dry, easy fix with a little oil. Tuning stability is good.Nut well cut. Intonation at the 12 fret is sharp on all strings. Fret ends are good-I can just feel one sharp edge on the 14th fret.
Finish is excellent-I can see a tiny amount of overspray on the binding around the neck joint. Action is higher than an electric guitar.
Unplugged, it is loud with the resonator thump.Plugged in it sounds like a very clean electric guitar. I run mine through a compressor. EQ controls are effective and the pickup is loud. You do need to manage output as a hollow,single coil guitar will feed back (and this does).
