Bravo Cherry

Serial #S2839

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. 

Bravo Custom Cherry Double Pickup 2010:  A unique Bravo with standard dimensions (16” x 2-1/2” body, 25” scale, 1-3/4” nut), but with two A6 model gold pickups and a small block between bridge and back to mitigate feedback.  Spruce veneer top, maple veneer back and solid maple sides.  Gold Schaller tuners, Ebony fingerboard, tailpiece, bridge, finger rest, tuning buttons and volume/tone controls with 3-way switch. Original TKL case included.

LUTHIER’S NOTES: Excellent condition with one indentation in the finish on the back.  We leveled the frets and set it up to factory specs with 11s. Old-spec truss rod functions sufficiently.
