Bele-Blaster Shaping Up...




I'll be building a tele-based guitar for long-time friend and great guitarist Brett Bledsoe. Here's Brett out at the shop discussing the future guitar's ins and outs with Don and myself.

We had originally planned on just doing an economical version of a tele, but once Brett compared the all wood guitar tone to the wood/acrylic JazzBlaster's tone, he changed his mind. We'll be doing a first for Brett and for BCG; A wood/plexi guitar with a tele bridge and a soap at the neck. This thing ought to be versitile, beautiful and sound fantastic.


BCG "Hot Rod" Blaster Featured in Premier Guitar Magazine

Lucky us. We had a guitar named "Hot Rod" and Premier Guitar Magazine was featuring hot rodded guitars! Great timing and we really appreciate the coverage. Spread the word! Read the article.

New site feature and possible magazine feature!

OK, so I've got the homepage updated with a video from BCG artist Andrew Godwin of The Famine. I've known Andrew since he was a wee lad and am proud to see him doing so well. Kudos to you my friend! And thanks for making the site cooler.

Don and I also got a call from Joe of Premier Guitar magazine. Seems they want to feature the Hot Rod J-Blaster in their February issue. Hopefully this will happen and we will experience much joy. More as the story unfolds...

New Site Up and Walking...

Check out the new look for the Bell Custom Guitar web site. I worked long and hard on it, so appreciate it! I'm still developing a few pages and features that will hopefully be live in the not-too-distant future. So check back often to see what's new and don't be shy, tell us what you think of the site!

Good Show!

Bell Custom Guitars had a great time at the Arlington Guitar show this year. We met lots of interesting folks, discovered lots of new guitars and toys, made a couple of sales and saw single guitars that are worth more than our booth 10 times over! Thanks to all who came by to check out the guitars and chat it up with Don, Matt and myself.

The shop is going to be up and running soon, so we plan on getting the tele models done, as well as a jazzblaster bass featuring the acrylic/wood hybrid body.

Guitar show videos up soon. Inspired for the future...
