One of the rarest guitars Bedell ever produced, the Summer of Love Dreadnought is a collector-grade tone machine with tonewoods and craftsmanship worthy of the finest stages and studios. Built in extremely limited numbers around 2014 to 2015, only about a dozen of these were made, making it one of Bedell’s most elusive high-end models. This example features a powerful Adirondack spruce top paired with beautifully figured Brazilian rosewood back and sides, a tonewood combo known for its thunderous projection and complex overtones. The dreadnought body shape offers deep lows and a wide dynamic range, perfect for full-bodied strumming or nuanced flatpicking. A Honduran mahogany neck supports an ebony fingerboard with tasteful abalone and mother-of-pearl inlays, completing a refined yet vintage-inspired look. Other details include antique-brass Bedell open-gear tuners, a ~1.75" nut width, and a ~25.5" scale length for optimum tension and clarity. It ships in its original premium Hoffee carbon-fiber case. Condition is very good, with only light signs of wear and a slight bridge lift that does not currently affect playability. This guitar is equal parts tonal powerhouse and modern heirloom.
