Bedell "blowout" at zZounds - all solid starting at $329
I thought I would share this, as Bedell is not often discussed here. The ones I have played were excellent with fantastic volume and tone - very similar to Eastman stuff. They have ALL SOLID guitars starting at $329 including a gig bag and a payment plan.
I would get one myself, but the 1 & 11/16 nut width is a deal breaker for me. Thought I would share it - they are a great bargain and pretty nice guitars. Here's a link: http://www.zzounds.com/prodsearch?q=...=q&form=search No, I am not affiliated with Zzounds or Bedell. Happy hunting. Roy

Wow, those are excellent prices. I wonder if any have 1.75 nut width. I might have to get a beater guitar.

Nah, they all appear to be 1 & 11/16ths - otherwise I'd get one myself.

Looking at these deals myself...anyone have one of these? The ones I've played never disappointed...but it's been awhile!

The 11/16th nut feels much more generous than my Yamaha FG700S.

I don't understand, how are they having a blowout in guitars they don't have in stock?

Bedell must have had a bunch of them left over when they moved the manufacturing to Oregon. |

I actually received the link a couple of days before posting. Perhaps they sold very quickly at about 1/2 price?

Note that most (but not all) of the guitars are all-solid wood.

I just pre-ordered a Bedell MB-28-G using the payment plan, so I don't have so much money tied up in case it doesn't come. It'll be my first all-solid wood and first OM, as I'm currently playing a 15 year old cedar topped Seagull S6+. I'll put either a K&K mini or JJB 330 in for playing out.

I have a Bedell BSMCE-18-G that I bought for $299 a few days after this past Christmas. I use it as my back-up when I gig, but find myself playing it quite often around the house. It has great projection and sweet overtones. I like the lower end (satin finish) Bedell offerings, too. I've played quite a few of them and not a single one has disappointed me.

I saw the sale prices and bought the TB18G dred and it should be arriving today. There is a Two Old Hippies store here in Nashville and they have a few Bedells around in addition to there other items. Very nice and for the "blowout" price I decided I couldn't go wrong. Not sure why they were marked down so severely.

I ordered the TB18G as well. Couldn't pass up that price.

Do you know where they are built?
