COMPUTER CHIP

   We've entered the 21st Century! 

Benedetto Guitars is thrilled to have the assistance of Chip Haggerty*, a college Intern who has created a new Facebook Official BG page, a BG Channel on YouTube and is Tweeting on Twitter if I have that correct.   (It's still all being 'tweaked' (couldn't resist) so bear with us!)

Sorry for being so behind in the Tech Times...thanks also to Karl Cossio of Kymera Studio for keeping the website current and adding the new icons...Howard and Chip will be updating Facebook so please check in - we'd love to hear your comments!  :-)

* "Computer Chip" is playing our Bravo Bigsby Baby  :-)

 "MR. E" CHORD #2 WINNER!

We have a winner!! (cyber drum roll here....)

David Gitlen sent in the first correct response on May 3rd 5:25 pm... "Looks Like Bbmaj7". [CONGRATULATIONS, DAVID!]

I have to tell you how much fun we had here reading all the (many) responses!! You are all pretty smart (at least those that got it right, ha)! Here I was just taking a 'fun foto', not realizing I was getting into some complex music 'stuff' (aka CMS)... As you can see, I take my Fun very Seriously so I had Howard Alden write the correct answer down (and date it!)  (Was thinking of even having it notarized...)

First place was actually tied with BG's own Final Assemblyman Seth...  :-)  (so you can feel safe about how your guitars are set up when they leave here!)

Funniest responses were a tie between Gary Brunner "It's definitely an 'Anguished' or a 'Demented' Chord" and Savannah's Jackson Evans who wrote  "I don't know which social scientists would find more alarming: How excited I was to answer the question or how often I visit the Benedetto website!"

BUCKY - THE LIFE OF THE PARTY

 WHEN SUNNY GOT BLUE

"Here a few shots of the Blue Bravo down under. The location is a piece of modern art in the Melbourne. It is called Vault. It has a mixed history but makes an unusual tone for a backdrop. Sunny finally got Blue! The windy day added to the amusement. The Bravo’s balance and consistent tonal richness through all registers have really been an eye and ear opener!"

BG'S BEST FRIEND - YOU'LL BE MISSED, LUCKY!

  Many of you already know we lost LUCKY yesterday, May 4, 2010...he was 12 years old, nearly 4 of those spent as the Official Mascot of BG.

While he was Howard, Patty and Andy Paul's dog 'officially', for 8 hrs a day, at least 5 days a week, he was 'my' dog...  :-)

Thank you for bringing so much joy into our lives...have fun in Doggie Heaven, Lucky!
