The Gallagher Bluegrass Bell - "It rings like a bell" 

Gallagher is pleased to announce a new model that is distinctly different from their previous offerings. The Bluegrass Bell harkens back to the prewar days of vintage guitars. Gallagher achieves that goal with forward shifted x-brace that was patterned after a 1937 D-18. They added torrefied Adirondack spruce top and bracing. In a departure from their typical headstock design, Gallagher incorporated their French curve with a square headstock. The forward-shifted X-brace to the positioning of the X-shaped brace, which is moved closer to the soundhole than in a traditional X-brace pattern. This design has several effects on the tone, projection, and responsiveness of the guitar. It allows for a larger, more flexible surface area behind the bridge, which can result in an increased bass response. This can give the guitar a fuller, warmer sound, particularly in the lower frequency range.  The forward-shifted X-brace can make the guitar more responsive to different playing styles and techniques. The increased flexibility of the top can produce a more dynamic range, with the guitar reacting more quickly to variations in picking and strumming.
