Introducing the Deluxe Bedford SH, a semi-hollow spin on our flagship solid-body and tonal dream machine. Featuring a sleek, modern f-hole design on the upper bout, the Bedford SH integrates a warm acoustic element into its three-pickup electronics configuration. The combination of two Seymour Duncan Five-Two's in the neck and middle positions followed by a Seymour Duncan SM-1b mini-humbucker in the bridge creates a full-bodied tonal profile, while a 5-way blade makes tone selection simple. Now available in Matte Black, Matte Wine and Matte Rose Gold—only 50 pieces each, worldwide.
Contoured F-hole Window
For an added edge of acoustic warmth to its three-pickup configuration, the Deluxe Bedford SH features a contoured F-hole over its oversized body chamber, perfectly blending the tonal worlds of solid-bodies and semi-hollows.
Unique Three-Pickup Configuration
Refreshing the standard three-pickup/five-way blade configuration, the Deluxe Bedford SH features a USA Seymour Duncan STR-52-1 in the neck and middle positions, while a SM-1b Mini-humbucker is nestled into the bridge—resulting in five incomparable, rich tones.
Ebony Fingerboard
With a bright edge for greater articulation and smooth sustain, ebony fingerboards now grace Deluxe Series Limited Edition models. Featuring a 14-inch radius and medium jumbo fretwire from Jescar for unparalleled control and tone.
Limited Edition
