The Korena take
D’Angelico’s Premier Bedford is a lightweight, right-handed solid offset electric with a basswood body, maple neck, and fixed Tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece. Its Duncan-Designed pickup set combines a stacked single-coil at the neck with a humbucker at the bridge. Push/pull tone controls add coil-tap access, giving the two-pickup layout more settings to explore. The guitar uses passive electronics and includes a gig bag.
