For the timeless folk-rock sound that defined an entire generation, look no further than the Bedell Coffee House Dreadnought. This instrument is exquisitely crafted to revive the spirit that inspired the incredible music of the counterculture era: Adirondack spruce tops from individually harvested trees, sustainably grown Indian rosewood backs and sides, traditional body shapes, an espresso sunburst finish, and a handcrafted koa binding.
There is something striking about the sound of rosewood paired with Adirondack spruce… when strummed, the Coffee House guitars take you right back to that moment in time when music was changing forever, when coffee houses were a radical, safe place for youth who wanted to change the world, and who believed in equality, justice, love and authentic self-expression.
The workshop-installed K&K Pure Mini pickups in the Bedell Coffee House Dreadnaught capture the fullness of sound and the vibe of the era authentically, without stage feedback. All Bedell Guitars come with a hardshell case.
Bedell Coffeehouse Dreadnaught
The Coffeehouse series of instruments are exquisitely
crafted to revive the spirit that inspired the incredible
music of the counterculture era: Adirondack spruce
tops from individually harvested trees, sustainably
grown Indian rosewood backs and sides, traditional
body shapes, an espresso sunburst finish, and a hand-
crafted koa binding.
Bedell craftsmen have achieved unparalleled tone and
projection from these traditional tonewoods for a truly
planet-friendly guitar made from ethically harvested
trees.
Peace,
Tom Bedell
