It’s time to trim down my collection to pay for a baritone acoustic guitar. I’m selling this with considerable sadness, but needs must.
It’s a lovely guitar with great sounding USA Seymour Duncan pickups. It has an Alder body, weighs 3.4kg (7lb 8oz) and has an ebony fingerboard. It also has Grover locking tuners. It really is high spec and made in Korea.
It has a small mark on the bass side of the neck at the 12th fret. It was like this from new. See the photograph (it was very hard to photograph since it is so small).
I can’t see any wear on the guitar. There is no fret wear. It has been played carefully and hasn’t left my house. I’ve tried to photo any slight imperfection/difference in the finish. They are only very minor, but I want to be detailed.
The case has been stored in a bedroom cupboard. There was a cosmetic scratch on the case when it arrived. This is photographed. It’s just a mark though. There is a little tarnishing to some of the metal on the case. I’ve photographed it.
It comes with the keys for the case and some strap locks too.
I’ll ship it by fast, insured, post in the original hard case, and cardboard box.
This is what D’Angelico say:
Available for the first time as a standard model in the Deluxe Series, the Deluxe Bedford SH is a semi-solid spin on our flagship solid-body. Featuring two Seymour Duncan Five-Two's in the neck and middle positions followed by a Seymour Duncan SM-1b mini-humbucker in the bridge, the SH offers a full-bodied yet remarkably articulate tonal profile, while a 5-way blade makes tone selection simple. Featuring a sleek, modern f-hole design on the upper bout, the Bedford SH integrates a warm acoustic element into its unique three-pickup electronics configuration. Now available in Desert Gold.
