Bucky Pizzarelli 7-String Prototype

Serial #48705

We are proud to offer eight of Bob Benedetto’s personal instruments on consignment in Bob’s Boutique (the Benedetto Guitars webstore). There are four prototypes from Bob’s early 2000s licensing collaboration with Fender Musical Instruments, two unique instruments from the Benedetto Guitars Inc. workshop between 2006 and present, and two stunning examples from his home workshop dating as far back as 1980. Each is a treasure, has a great story, and was refreshed and inspected in our workshop allowing us to offer a 2-year limited warranty. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of jazz guitar history!  

2005 Prototype Bucky Pizzarelli 7-string Serial #48705 in Opulent Brown is a beautiful example of a 3″ x 16″ body with laminated back and top. Built on Bob’s Riverview, Florida workbench as a reference piece for the Fender Custom Shop, this guitar is truly one-of-a-kind. The neck has been reset making this an absolute pleasure to play.
