I recently bought an absolutely stunning Conti Heirloom! I’ve been playing guitar for about 25 years. Like most guitarists, I’ve owned, sold and traded my share of guitars in an effort to find the most perfect fit. None have felt as smooth and easy to play as the Conti Heirloom. For me, the most important aspect of a guitar is the feel and intonation. The Heirloom action is surprisingly low, the neck shape is very comfortable (not too fat, not too narrow) and the intonation is stellar no matter where I am on the neck. I only wish I had
Gorgeous and comfortable to play…
I’ve already got my new Entrada Guitar (15 inch) I love it, it’s gorgeous and comfortable to play I love the Port Wine color with gold finger tailpiece. Also I want to thank your Support and Service Staff; they are great, always informing me of the status of my purchase.
When I saw your Entrada guitar demo in Youtube, I said I gotta have one. Also I’m amazed seeing you play those lines; it’s heavy stuff and watching your other videos I become interested when you said you can learn jazz by playing jazz, no modes and scales. And that’s why I also purchase some of your book and DVD products.
I have a lot of jazz instructional books and DVDs that I purchase until now, I don’t know how to apply it in jazz songs. Base on my experience studying the Robert Conti books and DVDs, (although I’m still in the beginning part) I can say the Robert Conti method is superb, it’s straight forward, it teaches you to play jazz. If you want to learn to play jazz, I recommend Robert Conti books and DVDs.

Wish I had discovered this guitar way back when…

In 2009 when Robert Conti came out with his Conti Archtop guitar, I purchased one identical to the one I am holding in the photo! It still looks and plays like a dream. The thinner body is extremely comfortable. The action is low and fast as well. The pick guard and tail piece are wood – just all an around great guitar with a lot of attention to detail. Mr. Conti, thank you for being an absolute gentleman and taking the time to speak with me at the NAMM show. You are an inspiration to me and countless other musicians.

I’ve had my Conti Guitar and Henriksen 112 amp for about one month now, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve played three gigs out already and have been very happy with my tone in each venue. I made a small bridge adjustment (raised it slightly) out of the box due to some minor buzzing which is likely because of the high humidity where I live. Since then, all I do is tune and play. The intonation is outstanding and the ease of play is superior to my other archtops. My experience with Mike and the guys during my purchase
