Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Bought mine new in '81, and used it exclusively for everything I did for the next 20 years. Its the only guitar I've ever actualy worn down the frets and fretboard, but it still plays very well, kind of like a very well-worn baseball glove. I was particularly enamored with the stereo output feature. Compared to newer models, it remains very neck-heavy, but its tone is classic with the A bracing. Accoring to Beal, it is essentially a one year limited edition built to use up the leftover parts from the Patriot production model. |

Location: Jet City | Great guitar. I had one for a while, but had to say goodbye. I had several different Legends and no job so...
It did end up with one of my very good friends though, so I still have visitation rights. You can't go wrong with those A-braced Legends. |
