    Yep. I want one badly. This guitar was made for me 😊 That's exactly how I would have created a guitar. I didn't know the brand but it just got my respect. I'm ordering one and sell my 2 other customized guitars that basically were efforts to build this one. I couldn't have done it better so... Thanks guys and well done for the presentation. Nice to know the history behind it. America back in business in terms of quality and innovation in guitars 🇺🇸❤️

    I own the Bedford. Love it, can sound like a fender but can play heavier. Neck feels like a much pricier Gibson and has a great neck heal and easy to hit he high notes.

    I have the Deluxe and it is awesome. Thanks for the great Demo. I play mine mostly clean. Blend knob is supposed to blend in odd man pickup slowly but I don't notice it doing that. Sounds like it just adds it in immediately. Maybe it's me. Still sounds beautiful. Anyone else notice the same.

    About 2 weeks ago, I purchased a new Premier. I was thrilled to have it, but I immediately found things that disappointed me. First thing I saw was that the truss rod cover was screwed on crooked. Then, clearly seen at the low E first fret binding, there was dark area that appears to have been shaved out. There is also a crack from the fret through the binding to the neck. There are at least 3 more of these at the 3rd, 9th and 13th frets on the low E side. Then I went back to look at the fingerboard more closely. There are tool marks. I'll leave it at that. Those things should not be on a $1,000.00 guitar.
    It's costing me a couple hundred bucks to have this corrected. I don't know if mine is an exception, but that sucks. I've been a Bob Weir fan for more than 30 years. I've learned about music and life from him. So that just made this more disappointing that his name was on this poor treatment of the guitar. I don't want to end this on a shitty note. I like the 12" radius and the guitar fits well and I'm a huge guy. If balance is very importance to someone, this guitar is balanced. The guitar was easy to play once I got use to the radius; I typically play the 9". I'm converted > I like this neck a lot.

    Bob asked where to go next?
    He needs to call me because I have some new songs for the Grateful Dead to play. I guess they forgot how to write new songs.
    Seriously Bobby you have a great handshake I met you once just give me a holler man I've been trying to get these songs to you.

    Bob played this model for a VERY short time. I haven't seen it on stage for years. So much work for so little stage time? It was probably not a good tonal fit for Mayer.

    I don't know if its the recording but if not the pickups sound bad in the neck or when any bass is kicked in....... Bass if flabby and loses articulation. I liked the idea when listening to the reason is was made but the tone turned me off. The bridge sounds much better.

    @nipperbrothers7566 4 года назад +2

    Why don't these guys add some tone comparisons just using standard "cowboy" chords? Why do they always have to some some weird different chords that you never hear or play? How can you compare the sound of your guitar with their guitar when they always play weird shit? I guess they just want to show off how cool they are that they can do that. Does nothing to sell a guitar to the masses.

    Seems to be a fine instrument..... but I'm so tired of listening to guitar companies trying to sell "a little bit of hidden magic"... to quote your sales representative. Pickups are determined by math and the components used.... NOT magic, fairy dust or unicorn manure!

    The chords used first were awful to my ears, and the second example was out of tune. Very informative on the features and tones, but ugh, I had to go look for a different video halfway through.
