We’re getting ever closer to the 100 year anniversary of the modern archtop guitar in 2023, and getting ready this week by applying color to the special Americana model guitars we have in the works. Master Finisher, Larry Perkins has applied a wash-in burst to these three instruments (not a typical method here at Benedetto Guitars) and the result is simply stunning! Anyone interested in owning one of these unique guitars should contact us. info@benedettoguitars.com. Don’t forget there are only 3 of them!!!

It’s Taylor Powell’s last day and we’re wishing him all the best after half a decade in the White Wood Department! Taylor came to us from his home state of Michigan in 2017 with a Journeyman Program Certification from Galloup School of Guitar Building and Repair. We are certain that his meticulous nature and great ability to focus on detail will serve him in whatever endeavor comes next… Thank you for a great five years of necks, frets, and fingerboards, Taylor!

Enjoy a sneak peek of these three, limited edition, non-cutaway Americana models that will commemorate 100 years of the modern archtop guitar. They will be ready to move into finish when the luthiers get back next week, and boy do we have something spectacular planned for them!
