Beard Jerry Douglas "Black Beard" Guitar (played on stage and signed by Jerry Douglas)

On the morning of July 20th, 2023, we received a request from Beard guitars:  would we consider loaning the new Beard Guitars Jerry Douglas "Black Beard" guitar that we had for sale in the store to Jerry Douglas?  The pickup system in Jerry's stage instrument needed repair, and he was in need of a guitar to play that evening for his show at the Lobero Theater in Santa Barbara.  That day, we had the pleasure of meeting Jerry and his band when they stopped by to pick up the guitar.  After using the "Black Beard" for his show that evening, Jerry signed the back of the headstock before returning the guitar.  We are now offering it for sale by auction, and donating all profits from the sale to Guitar for Vets, a wonderful organization that provides free guitars and lessons to our veterans with PTSD.  Please help us support them and the great work that they do for our veterans.  You can read about them here:  guitars4vets.org

Please note that this guitar is being sold as a new instrument, fully backed by Beard Guitars as a new guitar.
