James Bond, limousines, and penguins can’t all be wrong… We’re not sure there is anything classier than Bravo all tux-ed up in a Black finish.

A year or so ago when a customer asked us for something entirely unique and aesthetically extraordinary, we knew exactly what to do… we just happened to have the perfect thing hiding out in a corner of the shop! The Tamo ash veneer on the top of this Bravo Deluxe is as unique and extraordinary as they come and the perfect Light Antiqueburst finish on top of it is the icing on the cake.

This stunner of an Antiqueburst Bravo was just completed and is available for immediate purchase. Head over to Bob’s Boutique to click and buy, or you can call (912-692-1400) or email (info@benedettoguitars.com) with any questions.

Built with a laminated spruce top, solid maple sides, and laminated maple back, the Bravo model brings all the durability and stage worthy performance a gigging musician could ever hope for. With all ebony appointments, finished in genuine nitrocellulose lacquer, and crafted with that special Benedetto TLC, this guitar will hold up to the most discerning guitarist’s scrutiny.

We have one more Cremona on order making its way through the shop… What’s harder than nailing the incredibly tight binding miters of a Cremona headstock? Nailing them with splintery exotic wood. Senior Craftsman, Steve Holzknecht documented his tedious task and the result is too good not to share.

Two Cremona model guitars in ten days! It’s almost unheard of but we sure are proud to have made it happen. If you scroll back and take a look at the other one (posted January 15), it makes a good case for demonstrating just how unique and special each of these Flagship guitars can be.

We couldn’t blame you for mistaking this guitar for a Bravo Elite, but it’s actually a Bravo Deluxe that has been given our faux-Elite treatment. In addition to a first-of-its-kind, non-standard Walnutburst finish, we overspray maple binding, and bundle a few other custom details to get this staggering look… What a stunner!

Everything is better with a cherry on top! This custom Benny shipped off yesterday and features a flame maple top, dual Benedetto A-6 humbuckers, and a gorgeous Cherry finish.

Eat your heart out, Rolls Royce! This is the Cremona, our fanciest model, which we think puts it in the running for fanciest things, period. It would be difficult to construct a more detailed and intricate guitar. This one is shipping out this week to a very patient customer overseas… Bon voyage!
