Benedetto Bambino

Growing up as a kid outside of New York City and this brand was almost mythical. We would see all these super famous jazz cats in the city playing these. Bucky Pizarelli. Pat Martino. It was literally a club. Fun fact, Robert Benedetto only made about 900 instruments in his career… This one was made in the 2010s When he was at the end of overseeing operations.

Anyway, this Guitar is in very good condition. There are a couple scuff marks in the side and a little bit of buckle rash in the back. There is a little bit of hazing on the finish that could probably be buffed out of the nitro, but if I do that myself, it would be listed for $500 more. Either way it’s a completely amazing and historic instrument.
