October 2024 Update “I have to say that over the last 3 years, I’ve had at least 10 guitars of varying styles. From archtop, to Les Paul, to Telecaster, and from various manufacturers. But the finest guitars I’ve ever owned are my Conti guitars. I’m partial to the aesthetics of my wine-colored Entrada (the pic doesn’t do it justice). The sound of my blond Heirloom is extraordinary. And the antique burst Entrada is a treat when I feel the need for a traditional looking archtop. But they all sound fantastic in their own right and are easily the most playable

I love the Conti Equity – Robert chose the combination of features that has eluded everyone else. A solid spruce top on a thinline? With a deep cutaway? Yeah, baby! This instrument is a topshelf blend of art, science and genuine craftsmanship that is really easy on the hands, the back, and the eyes – and really difficult to put down. Inspirational – and more hours with the instrument in my hands makes me a better player. With this instrument, and The Source Code series, Robert Conti has provided the keys to the kingdom – Thanks!!!

I have played many fine archtop guitars, but I must say that my Conti stands out among all of them. Playability was perfect upon arrival. Sound is warm and robust through my Polytone amp – notes are even throughout the length of the neck. Frankly, there’s nothing that I would change about the instrument. To say it’s a great guitar for the money is misleading. It’s a great guitar – period!
Far superior to a $5,000 archtop I sold…

Nothing feels like an Ebony fingerboard…
I ordered 2 Entradas. These guys really make buying a guitar fun. They are eager to speak with you, answer your questions, and always get back to you if they have to check something out. Feels like you’re buying a guitar from an old friend. One Entrada was dead perfect right out of the box. Even in perfect tune!! It still has barely gone out of tune. The other needed a bit of tweaking to get it the way I like it, but nothing major. The surprising thing is that both of these played like butter right out of the
