My favorite style of music to both listen to and play is jazz. I have been playing my Eastman 7 string almost exclusively the past few years, but my carpal tunnel that has made it nearly impossible to play that guitar. It's honestly been in its case for the past 6 months. I was not looking for a guitar, but was watching Pat Martino videos and of course Google ads notifies me that there is a Benedetto Bambino for sale at my local GC of all places. I've always wanted a Benedetto, but was not in a position to spend that kind of money. Well, the price was too good, and I can play it for an hour pain free. I've only seen Benedetto's in the hands of my favorite players, but never had the nerve to ask Bucky or Howard Alden if I could try theirs. The Bambino might be their base model, but it is built perfectly and the guitar is in super clean shape for being nearly 6 years old. I've never played a better made guitar. It's certainly not flashy, but through an amp, this guitar sounds like a jazz guitar should, at least to me.
