Description
Here we have one of the first of the Paul Beard Deco Phonic Model 27 Squareneck resophonic guitars, built during December of 2017 in Hagerstown Maryland. It also sports a factory Jerry Douglas passive pickup system.
This example is in good clean condition with a few bumps and scrapes. Its tone is well developed and it definitely provides good volume levels even without the pickup reinforcement.
The original Beard hard shell case is included.
New for 2018 from Paul Beard Guitars in Hagerstown Maryland, the Beard Deco Phonic Model 27 square neck evokes the Art Deco stylings of the late 1920s when resophonic guitars were introduced.
Construction and Materials
Using a classic single-resonator design, the Model 27 uses Finnish Birch laminates for the body, solid maple for the neck, and Morado (also called Pau Ferro) for the 25 inch scale fingerboard, and ebony / maple bridge inserts. On the Model 27, the top is bound. These wood choices make the guitar completely CITIES compliant.
A thin vintage style, semi-gloss sunburst finish is applied to the top, and the back, sides and neck get a dark treatment.
The Beard Deco Phonic Model 27 Resophonic Guitar Sunburst tuners are Golden Age vintage reproductions, and the all-important resonator assembly uses a Beard #14 spider and triple-spun Beard Legend cone, under a fan-design nickel plated cover plate. We sold these new with a Jerry Douglas pickup factory installed, and include the hard shell Beard arched top case.
