I once complimented the great guitarist Ron Eschete on his Benedetto at a live gig and he immediately turned to me and said,”that’s not the guitar Sir, that’s me!”
@@craigsaxonmusic9372 I Cannot argue with that, especially when it comes to great players such as RE- it is in the hands. Although Barney Kessel said in one of his videos that one's guitar of choice should feel like "walking at home with slippers".

Here is a funny story...A well-known jazz guitarist in NY once told me that a good archtop should never cost more than $2,000. However, his main axe is worth about $20,000 today or more (he paid much less and knew the builder personally). He did, however, sell his L-5 to finance that guitar."
Great tone........ oh, and great playing......

@@NofuskyDR the SL pickup might be a good middle of the road pickup to try.
The SL made a big difference? Id like to hear before/ after vids. He's a great player.

Tone like this makes me wonder why people spend $4k+ on a hollowbody
