collapse expand iconDescription

Designed, along the the rest of D'Angelico's Deluxe Series, to add upgraded features to increase playability, tone and the signature aesthetics, the Bedford is a sleek, lightweight solid offset-body guitar with tone that is versatile and organic. Featuring USA-made Seymour Duncan pickups, the combination of a stacked single-coil in the neck and a humbucker in the bridge position, along with push/pull coil-tap access, enables you to explore a wide range of tone in a supremely comfortable and tuneful instrument. The added 6-point tremolo bridge brings additional versatility to this Deluxe Bedford model, offering classic "whang bar" action for surf, rock, country and more. Plus, you get the added security of straplocks already installed on the guitar.

    I love it. It's balanced, versatile and a little lighter than I expected.
