Is this a precious father/daughter photo or what?!
Michael Bersten, of Australia, in an impromptu photo with his new 18" La Venezia 7-String and his even more precious 4-year old daughter, Viola. :-)
Per Michael, the photo shows "just how big and beautiful the guitar is in contrast with a beautiful little person."

Well, we finished Pat Martino's new guitar...Per his request, we finished the Top in our gorgeous Autumnburst shade (after Pat saw it in our Savannah shop)...this new Benny Deluxe Custom is en route, along with Pat himself!, to Tokyo for Pat's latest tour...we are expecting some great live shots soon! ;-)
Special thanks to BG's set-up man, Seth (far left), and Production Manager Evan Ellis (left, center) for making it happen!

"I'm pleased to be the new owner of Bambino s/n S1675, purchased from Guitar Rodeo in Minneapolis", writes Roger Tiede. This has added a new dimension to my retirement. The Bambino was a reward to myself."
Across the Atlantic, from Germany, Norbert Zimmerman enjoys his Claret Bravo (made during our Fender Years).
"Hello Mrs. Benedetto, thanks! It is exactly the guitar I possess."

THAT ANDY IS HANDY
|
|
Couldn't resist a pre-news item from Captain Dave (aka C.D.) & Andy! (the Official "Episode 10" will be a day or so late this month as I'll be out of the office Thursday, Oct 1st)...and it will certainly 'elevate' your spirits when you see it :-)
Anyway, how cute is this; taken in preparation for October's Episode... C.D.'s ANDY "fits perfectly in the back of my Mini Cooper Clubman". (the cutest guitar in the world's cutest auto!)
Now THAT's a Travel Guitar!
Be back on Friday, Oct 2nd!
