Hi Chris,

Welcome to our friendly forum.

I have not actually played the Fender FS52, but I do not think it is a good guitar for the money. I have seen it advertized for around 300 GBP and for that money I would search for an old 1940s or 1950s lap steel guitar with some character and a nice old pickup.

Now I have a question for you Chris. Why are you using a photo of me as your forum avatar? I would not want people to think I am posting messages with another name.

Shine On
Michael
