Bob Benedetto is arguably the world's best jazz guitar luthier, and this beautiful Plumburst Manhattan model built by his team is a prime example. The 17" hand carved archtop immediately catches your eye with the unique plumb/espresso finish. The body is crafted from highly figured European maple with a European spruce top, and boasts all ebony appointments, a flame maple neck with ebony fingerboard, black and white line work, violin/cello tailpiece, and the S6 floating pickup. The guitar is in overall used but very good condition. The guitar has a cosmetic crack in the finish on the treble side of the tailpiece. It's barely visible from more than a few inches away, and does not affect the structural integrity of the wood. The original hardshell case is included.
