Ive seen one Rogue and it was aweful . But it had been hanging on a wall for God
only knows how long it rattled like a kazoo .There was a Regal hanging next to it
the Rogue rattled so bad it made the Regal sound great ! so this one particular
Rogue is the only one ive ever seen ,I saw a Johnson once that could have been
the same guitar with a different sticker on it and ive seen one Johnson that was
actually not bad .
I think Gibson even offers an import Dobro now for around 300 not sure if they
set it up though
.

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.
