Happy birthday to our beloved CEO and President, Howard Paul! We’re not sure anyone loves that jazz guitar life more than him, so here’s to many more years filled with gigs, concerts, jams, and hangs!

Here’s a big Benedetto thanks to the Savannah Country Day School STEM department for inviting us to their stunning new facility and then popping by for a tour. Besides learning about the design, engineering, and construction processes for a Benedetto guitar, they also ran into the Andy model named for SCDS alumni, Andy Paul.

This gorgeous Centennial Americana (#1 of 3) is ready to ship! You can contact us (info@benedettoguitars.com) or head on over to Bob’s Boutique for more details.

In the spring of 1923, the world saw for the first time one of Lloyd Loar’s finest creations: the first modern archtop guitar to incorporate violinistic appointments including an end block mounted tailpiece and f-style sound holes.

Today we honor the 100 year anniversary of the Modern Archtop Guitar with 3 custom Americana models appointed in homage. They were built using exceptional woods, non-cutaway 17″ x 3″ body, violin style tailpiece, elongated, bound finger rest, stylized fretboard end, and a gorgeous, wash-in Antiqueburst finish. Collectors and players will agree these are the dream guitars for any swing guitarist, perfectly suited to bridge the gap between a bygone era and contemporary playability and sonic capabilities.

Congrats to Steve Knight on his recent four star review in Down Beat magazine! You can purchase “Persistence” from his website, steveknight.net.

We couldn’t blame you if you mistook this custom 16-B for a Bravo Elite. When the customer couldn’t decide between the two models we simply reminded them that custom guitars are just as fun as standard models… why not have the best of both worlds!?

Are you attending the South Jersey Jazz event, “Jazz at the Point, a Celebration of Pat Martino’s Life and Legacy” on November 3rd through 6th in Sommers Point, NJ? Have you ever wanted to try a particular model of Benedetto guitars but haven’t been nearby to try on? Well, have we got great news for you… Howard Paul will be driving up Wednesday morning and has room for a few guitars. He’ll obviously bring a Pat Martino Signature model and his own custom 16-B, but if there is something else you would like to get your hands on, please shoot us a message at info@benedettoguitars.com or comment on our Facebook post. See you in Jersey!

The Cremona model is the fanciest iteration of Bob’s design aesthetic. Classic lines and ornate details make this incredibly rare model the flagship of the flagships.

This Bravo Elite is heading West… It’s hard to go wrong with the subtle lines and violinistic aesthetic borrowed from the La Venezia model!
