Here we have a Beardsell Style 2 in Cherry and Spruce. This Style 2 has a big, raucous voice that is unique and fully engrossing, reminiscent of a great Selmer guitar. This one excels at jazz and single line soloing in a larger setting, but has the versatility to emote even intricate fingerstyle in more intimate surroundings. The soundport design puts you right inside the voice of this guitar, enabling you to hear every nuance of the sound before it ever makes its way to the crowd. And though this one might have a 12 fret neck joint, the heel transition and cutaway ensure that you can solo up as high as you like with ease. If you love a good Jazz box but want more substance to your sound, look no farther.
When a Beardsell comes in the door, you know I'm going to play it. Alan's neck shape is perhaps my very favorite. He uses an asymmetrical shape where the bass side is slightly slimmer. It feels very natural as that's where the thumb arches inward toward the neck. And with the huge and capable voice, I'm sold every time. Love it! 
This guitar sounds and plays like a high-end archtop with a little more "meat" to the tone. It's loud and cuts through any mix. Ideal for ensemble playing in a Jazz or Gypsy Jazz setting, but versatile enough to be used as an all around guitar too. | Scale Length | 24.81 in |
