They have some incredible savings on these Oregon-made acoustic and acoustic/electric guitars at up to 82% off list price. See them here. Has anyone here played or heard a Bedell guitar? They look gorgeous. |

18 Jul 14 - 06:29 PM (#3643259) Subject: RE: Bedell Guitar blowout at American Musical Supply From: michaelr Thank you, maeve. I had found those links, as well. From what I read there, it appears that Bedell Guitars ceased their Chinese production and are now building in Oregon. So this sale may well be a sell-off of older Chinese-made inventory. |

27 Aug 14 - 11:03 PM (#3654338) Subject: RE: Bedell Guitar blowout at American Musical Supply From: michaelr Well, I took the plunge and bought a Bedell guitar sight unseen. I must say I'm impressed. It's a spruce top, rosewood sides and back with a cutaway and Fishman pickup and preamp with in-soundhole controls. I've been looking it over and haven't found a flaw yet in the woodwork, bindings or finish. It sound quite good but will have to be played in for the tone to develop. My friend who is a guitar repairman said it's the nicest Chinese-made guitar he's ever seen. Basically, I got a $1,200 instrument for $500. I'm stoked! |
