“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 guitars I’ve owned. I’ve looked at other boutique archtops and inflation has taken its toll over the last few years; most seem to be trending $7K to $9K…that is just not competitive with a Conti archtop. The value of a Conti archtop cannot be beaten IMO.
So again a big thank you to Steve, Mike and Robert for their incredible customer service and attention to detail.”

Beauty, playability, consistency, quality and value all describe my two Conti Entradas perfectly, but not completely. The purchasing process was undoubtedly the most customer focused experience I’ve ever encountered (for any product purchase I’ve ever made). From working with Steve in finalizing the guitar options, Mike on the supply/shipping/delivery side, and finally Robert and his incredibly enjoyable and personal videos; just an outstanding effort by a highly professional team that places the customer first.
They are the finest guitars I’ve ever owned (far superior to a $5,000 archtop I recently sold). The craftsmanship and value of the Entrada make me question why anyone would purchase anything other than a Conti Guitar.
I’m also about a third through the Source Code family of videos and Robert’s instruction is concise, insightful and highly enjoyable; a tremendous teacher without peer.
My sincere thanks to the great Conti Team!

Finest guitar I have ever played…
I took delivery of my sunburst Entrada with gold finger tailpiece about a week ago. From the day I ordered

I’ve had my Conti 7-String Equity Custom since May 2013 and I am very happy with this guitar. The neck
Top-notch and unequalled by any other guitar company
This is a great guitar! It is as advertised and then some. It is right up there with the best
