I've only heard one Rogue reso, and it was tuned and played Spannish style.
But, it sounded OK I suppose. My wife has a Rogue mandolin. She started out
to learn it, but it would never stay in tune, and sounded dreadful. It's
been in the case for a couple of years now. Her fiddle gets daily workouts.
Bottom line is, Many of the assembly line instruments are just slapped
together. Occasionally, purely by chance, the right combination of spider,
cone, box, tailpiece, coverplate, nut and saddle come together to make a
decent instrument, but more often than not, something is lacking.
