Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
A sleekly designed archtop with a smaller body without sacrificing big tone! And while Benedetto still produces Bambino line guitars, you won't find one in this pretty Lime Sorbot finish or equipped with coil tap wiring on the new market!
SP Luthier Notes: Full fret dress and setup
From Benedetto Guitars
As its name implies, the Bambino is a baby in size…but with a big voice. This extraordinary model is a prayer answered for the musician with a lot of time on the road. Its lightweight and compact 14 ½” body is easily manageable in airport traffic or taxis. It features a laminated maple top and back, a maple neck shaped for playing comfort as only a Benedetto can be. With two chrome plated Benedetto A–6 pickups, it’s all you’ll ever need! So, if you’re looking for the tone of a big jazz box but need the compact comfort of a smaller guitar, this model was made for you.
