Entrada Archtop Guitar

Robert, I wanted to give you some honest feedback now that I’ve spent plenty of time with my guitar. Tone is fantastic through both solid state and tube amps. Hardware is holding up very well. Took me a few tries to get used to stringing with that style tailpiece. Grown to love it. Stays in tune very, very well. I was a little worried with the temp and humidity changes here. No type of wear or cracking to the wood after this amount of time. Very solid. I use an Oasis case humidifier. Fretboard is terrific, very smooth, no signs of wear. Very, very infrequent adjusting is necessary. Case is one of the nicest gig bags I’ve ever used or seen. Holding up well. I really like the shape of the neck. Fits well in my hand. Many thanks, and know it’s being played and properly loved. I’d buy another down the road.

I just purchased a Conti Entrada in mint condition from a musical store in Middletown Ohio. I love the guitar. More so after I put some flat wound strings on the beast. Love the action. Great job!

I just wanted you all to know how thrilled I am with my new Entrada. Been somewhat preoccupied, but I've been able to spend enough time with the guitar to know what I have. It has more than lived up to my expectations - the workmanship and attention to detail are incredible AND this is the first guitar ever that has had the intonation and action dead on right out of the box-amazing! One of these days when things are a little calmer, I'll send a photo, but I wanted to touch base.

I’m loving everything about my new Entrada. This is the guitar I’ve been searching for! Guitar arrived in immaculate condition. Action, feel and finish and the weight are perfect. I can’t wait to play it through my Henriksen amp later tonight. The video was way cool. Thank you Mike, Bob, and the entire team. You folks are a class act.

I received my Entrada the other day and have to say this is one beautiful guitar, sounds great, looks great and plays like butter. Anyone looking for a great archtop at a fantastic price, look no further than a Conti Guitar. Great people to deal with, thank you.

I took delivery of my sunburst Entrada with gold finger tailpiece about a week ago. From the day I ordered to the day I sat and watched Robert playing my guitar to it in my hands was five business days. Packing and shipping we’re phenomenal as the Guitar was heavily padded and packed better than any guitar I have ordered online before.

Fit and finish is outstanding with details like triple binding. And fret work that is simply perfect. The action on my guitar was perfectly set to low action and the thing is a joy to play. I had a ES -125 TDC as a kid that I called the “pencil neck” and now at 65 years of age I know that my Conti Archtop Entrada is every bit as good or better than my 125!

The point where the neck joins the body is as smooth as glass and the tailpiece is simply stunning. And the sound from the Kent Armstrong is smooth as silk yet with gain sounds very full an robust. This is without a doubt the finest guitar I have ever played. My search is over!

Thank you Robert and team so much! Once I’ve gotten some of Robert’s jazz lines mixed in with the blues I’ll post some sounds.
