Robert, the Entrada is everything you described it to be in the personal video you sent — and more! It plays smoothly and the notes are clear and very sharp. My wife, Linda, likes the color of the guitar, and the look of the Gold Finger tailpiece. In your video you explained that the Gold Finger tailpiece contributes to the sound of this beautiful arch top as well as looking nice. I have enjoyed my equity model for 10 years, and now I can continue that enjoyment with a lighter guitar around my neck. I started my Conti journey with
Craftsmanship and specs of this guitar are well thought out
My experience with Conti guitars is different than most owners. I knew nothing about the company. I came to my guitar walking into a local guitar shop and seeing it hanging on the used guitar wall. Upon initially seeing it, it was right up my alley taste wise regarding the type of guitars I like, although I thought it was going to be very expensive because as we all know…these guitars could pass as high end boutique guitars. After the pleasant price tag shock, I took it home. The craftsmanship and specs of this guitar are well thought out; I really appreciate that it’s a full 2 octaves with an ebony fretboard. I wanted to change the bridge & tailpiece to the ebony ones as mine came with the metal ones. And this is what really impressed me with Conti guitars…as a second owner…the customer support is still strong. These guys really stand by their guitars. I love this guitar for my vintage type R&B, soul & jazzy tones.

Incredible action and rich warm jazz tones…
The Conti Heirloom guitar is an absolute dream; stunning looks, incredible action and rich warm jazz tones. The smaller body, as compared to a traditional archtop, makes it ideal for the gigging musician; all while retaining a surprisingly robust acoustic sound. This is an extremely versatile instrument that I cannot seem to put down. A true work of art. Dan Ennis – Houston, Texas www.DanEnnis.com

The CONTI has landed!!! I’m very impressed. Stunning, light, the action is fast and no work will be done at my place for at least 6 months! Time to get this beast under my fingers. Thanks again Robert Conti, Mike and all staff who had an input into this great axe.
