That's pretty strong.

Ooooooo...

Yes please. Even with one string too many.

I hadn't even noticed that

 

[Flamencology]

I wouldn't buy a Benedetto that wasn't a 7-string.

Jazz players typically tune the low string down to A to accommodate bass lines. Just think - the 5th and 7th strings are tuned the same way.



Anyway, if I did but a Benedetto, I'd buy a more traditional archtop rather than a high-end 335. I've already kind of got one, with the Collings.

 

[Guitar Heel]

Very nice.

Just as Flamencology said, a Benedetto would not be my first choice for a 335-ish.

 

[GreatDane]

I think the black hardware makes it look cheap. Which is a shame because it's a Benedetto and it's not.

 

[Coralkong]

I am not digging that finish, or the extra string........I'm sure it plays nicely and sounds great, but I'd choose a different one.

 

[wagdog]

Like the look.

 

[ellengtrgrl]

VERY nice (and yes, I don't mind the black hardware)! I'm sure that like your typical Benedetto, it's insanely expensive.
