Hi! nice guitar and nice playing. i consider bying a bravo and i want to ask how it performs acousticaly? (it's laminate so i wonder how it performs unamplified...) thanks!
@oyecarnal: To my mind the acoustic sound is great, much more than the one from a Gibson L5. Try out some videos of Barry Green on youtube. There you can here it with a better sound quality. Regards - Axel
Beautiful playing, Axel! I was wondering if you knew that the last II-V progression in the tune starts with a C7+9#11 rather than a Cm7b5? Anyway, great playing and really nice guitar!
Thank you for you answer, but I was thinking more in terms of quality. I know it is much more expensive than the Gibson - is it also that much better?!?
@jazzperl7: The Bravo Deluxe isn't much more expensive than a Gibson L5 WM, because it's a model from the professional series (ca. 7.500 USD). Nevertheless the Benedetto's craftmanship and the overall quality is much better than it is with the Gibson guitars - to my mind.
Hi Jesper, at first thank you for your compliments! The L5 and the Bravo are totally different. The L5 with that PAF Pickup has that very typical fat electrical sound whereas the Bravo is a more acoustical archtop guitar. What's different too are the neck profiles - the Bravo's neck is much more slim than the L5's.
@aidonoso: It seems to be opulent brown but I'm not sure. This guitar does not belong to me. I only checked it some days and then gave it back. Greeting from Germany - Axel
Man that came from the soul, beautiful playing.

Hi Axel....
I am a huge archtop afficionado and I love your tasteful playing.
Now how would you say this guitar compares to your L5?!
Best regards

Very sweet playing..!!
This is a Benedetto Bravo i guess..
How is the neck profile? in general, what is your opinion on this guitar, please?

@misternogreco
Yes, this is a Benedetto bravo. It has a very slim neck profile, that's not mine. Nevertheless the acoustic sound is great.

If you were playing some stupid shred nonsense stuff you would have hundreds of comments by now.
