  • Found my "dream" guitar!

    This is weird. I've envisioned, for quite some time, building my "perfect" guitar. A simple, clean design, that emulated the look of an acoustic. Sitka Spruce top, with Mahogany sides and back. And just for the fun of it - a pair of Benedetto A6's.

    So I'm looking for any and all info on Benedetto p'ups, and stumble across this: (Guild Benny 6.)



    More info here.

    The exact guitar that I've been pictureing in my mind.
    And at $6000.00, I'll resume my plan to build one.

      Actually, from what I've read about Robert Benedetto, I don't think that its overpriced.

      Just out of my price range.

      Also, I hope no one takes my remark to think that I can math Benedetto's work. But maybe, at least build something "reasonably" close.

      Edit: Wow . . . what a fruedian slip. Thats supposed to say "match" Benedetto's work.

        Cool find. Seeing as that price is somewhat substancial, I fully agree with you in building one. :P

          Looks like a great "Desert Island" guitar! I'd love a Bennedetto, but it's not in the cards, right now. I didn't know Guild was making similar designs. Honestly, the only Carvin guitars to grab my eye lately have been some of those thin acoustic w/humbucker types. Especially the Koa ones. Dang Carvin Catalogs! LOL

            While I'm not sure I understand the "desert island" reference, your post made me aware of two things:

            1. I have neither Guild or Carvin in my "manufacturers" links on my webpage. (Will fix tomorrow.)

            2. The Carvin website has some very cool guitar wallpapers.
