Gallagher The Bluegrass Bell Torrefied Adirondack/Rosewood Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar #4408

Sale price$5,400.00
The Gallagher Bluegrass Bell takes its inspiration directly from the heart of traditional American flatpicking, built with the same focus and feel that made the original dreadnoughts the sound of choice for generations of players. Its torrefied Adirondack spruce top has been carefully treated for added resonance and responsiveness, giving this guitar a lively and broken-in character right out of the case. Paired with East Indian rosewood back and sides, it delivers the bold projection and deep, complex overtones that bluegrass players demand when cutting through a mix. A mahogany neck carved into a soft V profile provides a comfortable and vintage-accurate feel, while the ebony fingerboard and bridge ensure durability, clarity, and smooth playability. The headstock’s distinctive “G” and French curve mother-of-pearl inlay adds a classic Gallagher touch, reinforcing the legacy of this respected builder. Traditional appointments such as ivory body binding, herringbone purfling, and a three-ring herringbone rosette tie the instrument back to the golden era of acoustic guitar design. Finished with a thin, vintage-style nitrocellulose lacquer in light amber, the Bluegrass Bell offers both beauty and tonal freedom, allowing the wood to breathe and respond with maximum character. With open-gear tuners, a 1 3/4" nut width, and Gallagher’s reputation for handcrafted precision, this guitar is a stage- and studio-ready workhorse that feels as timeless as it sounds.
