I had heard months ago that there might be a solid body Conti in the works, and when I received an email that only five would be created, again, I had to have one. My bandmates love the look and sound of this guitar and I couldn’t agree more. This guitar is perfectly balanced and the gold hardware completes the package. I do not have this color on any of the guitars in my collection. Great neck, incredible action!! The Kent Armstrong pickups are very responsive and create a very warm sound responding to this body.

These instruments receive the same quality control as new instruments, including a full pre-shipping inspection and set-up, and our signature personalized “owner introduction video” wherein Robert Conti actually plays and introduces you to your new instrument! Making our demo instruments available at a substantial price reduction (when we are able to do so) provides folks an opportunity to acquire a high quality instrument at great savings. Although the subject instruments may have been played for only an hour or two, we always advise every potential purchaser of any scratches, nicks, etc.
If our guitars were offered through the typical distributor/dealer network, the price would assuredly double, and in some cases actually triple. We are able to offer fully featured Conti Guitars at value pricing as they are only available direct from Conti Guitars.
