Benedetto Guitars From J Hale Music

As you may or may not know Benedetto Guitars has discontinued it's relationship with Fender guitars and is now producing a new line of instruments bearing the same model names as before. The designs have been subtly changed but the quality and great tone are just the same if not better.

From 1999-2006, Benedetto had a licensing agreement with Fender Musical Instruments to produce his models in a small, controlled manufacturing environment. In 2006, Benedetto joined forces with Howard Paul to bring Benedetto Guitars to the next level, manufacturing a broad line of more affordable professional instruments without compromising the unparalleled Benedetto worldwide reputation for singular quality. The new company is located in Savannah, Georgia, and will play a part in both the business and cultural communities.

J. Hale Music continues to be one of the select dealers for Benedetto Guitars.   Pictures of these fine instruments will be updated as we receive new instruments.
