This is an incredible, highly-playable, inimitable work of art. I love the slim, but perfectly proportioned build. Light and responsive. There isn't one square inch of wood here that doesn't ring for all its worth.

The organic aesthetic really does it for me, too. The natural top (because this grain is worth SEEING), the 3-dimensional figuring in the maple back and sides, the koa binding pulling everything together, and don't even get me started on the headstock inlay. It's a bit of south-western flare that's just impossibly classy. 

The sound is rich and clear. The notes balance beautifully when grouped together, and command attention when spread apart. The neck profile fits my hand like a glove and I really feel liberated by overall size of this instrument. 

This guitar is proof that the best tone often comes in small packages. It's a small archtop with the soul of a giant.

The Bambino Elite is our racing coup version of a La Venezia. Small body, narrow nut width, built-in B6 pickup, abbreviated tailpiece, it maintains an enormous amplified presence you'd expect from any of our large Flagship models. Its compact size makes it less feedback prone and more travelable. Stunningly beautiful.
