Benny Quilt Top

Serial #S1079

Benedetto is making available eight vintage guitars consigned by the family of a dear friend who was a prolific collector of guitars (mostly non-archtops).  From 2007 to 2010 he acquired seven custom Benedettos and one with all standard appointments. These guitars are all in excellent condition with very little ware, no obvious blemishes, dings or scratches.  These would be considered “closet classics.”  Our Master Luthier has inspected, cleaned, setup, and tested each instrument.  We will include a two-year warranty against defects with each purchase. Customer is responsible for shipping. 

Benny Custom Jazz Burst Quilted Maple Top, 2007:  Beautiful Benny model with tastefully muted quilted maple top and an unusually bursted upper and lower bout. 1 3/4” nut, 25” scale, Benedetto A6 pickups. Gold one-piece stop tailpiece. Includes original TKL hardshell case.

LUTHIER’S NOTES: Cleaned electrons – work fine.  Fresh fret level.  Strung with 11s. Only minor finish scuffs, with the exception of one ding on the back. 2-way truss rod works well.
