My Entrada arrived in Alaska in perfect shape after only 4 days, and was packed perfectly. This guitar is a lush beauty; a pleasure to play, hold, or just look at. The action is fantastic and the neck plays fast and easy. I chose the double pickup model because the band I play in plays a wide variety of music from standards, to western swing, blues, country and rock. I think this instrument will work beautifully for any of it. You can practice unplugged if you want, but it really comes alive and sounds beautiful when plugged in. I only
Plays and sounds as good as it looks
Robert and crew, I received my Conti Entrada archtop jazz guitar yesterday. My father, who is retired, kindly stayed at my house to receive the guitar from FedEx while I was at work. Just as I was leaving the office I got a call from Mike to make sure I received the guitar okay. The customer service with this crew is outstanding. There is nothing I can say about the guitar that hasn’t been said already. It is absolutely gorgeous and it plays and sounds as good as it looks. I didn’t want to put it down last night but I needed at least a few hours of sleep before going to work the next day. I can’t wait to get home from work so I can play it some more!
It’s so much fun to finally play jazz on a proper jazz guitar. Pure joy. The guitar introduction video from Robert was fantastic. He discussed the guitar, playing technique, and my playing which he had heard. What a thrill. It’s obvious he really cares about his customers and students and runs a crew with the same values. As he was playing several tunes, I turned to my wife and said, “That’s the best this guitar is ever going to sound!,” ha! But with his instruction, I’m headed in the right direction.
Thanks again Robert, and to all of your crew who made this guitar purchase a wonderful experience.

P.S. I’ll send a photo soon. I’ll also try and make a video recording, but it may be a week or so. I’m really busy with work and family obligations this week, and quite frankly would rather play the guitar than mess with recording equipment in the small amount of free time I have this week. ?

The best guitar I’ve ever owned
I am really enjoying the new Conti Entrada guitar. It is very comfortable to play. I really appreciate the response of the pickup, with a brilliant high end. This is simply the best guitar I’ve ever owned. Douglas Tharp – Kalispell, Montana

The guitar workmanship is exceptional…
Purchase Experience I first inquired about an Entrada guitar on the website Chat line and received quick responses from Steve. We then dialogued by Email until a guitar become available with my options a few weeks later. I paid for the guitar before shipping via PayPal – no hassles. Robert Conti did a final quality assurance check in a personal video “demoing” my guitar. This is not just a gimmick. It is very unique & informative, and great insurance protection in case of any in-transit damage or loss. The guitar arrived at my doorstep in London, Canada on October 1,
