Don't expect much fun up the dusty end, however, for dusty it will remain thanks to 15th-fret neck joins and vintage-style cutaways.

The neck is full in the hand, giving you something meaty and vintage-like to hold on to - 22mm deep at the first fret with a big-feeling, rounded profile all the way up. "Despite its vintage styling, the guitar remains entirely relevant" There's no such danger here, as with plenty of relief in the neck and the bridge set to fighting height, the action of the guitar will be unacceptably high for most tastes.Īs it happens, this reviewer quite likes it, as it demands you get in there and engage with the thing - the extra string vibration doing things to get what top there is moving, even though they're laminated. When we reviewed the Retromatic P3, we commented on its almost "too slinky" setup. Just for the record, all of the pickups are made in the Far East, which is to say designed by Matt Gleeson, not necessarily made by him. Additional quality component brands include the Tone Pros TOM Bridge, or The Gotoh TOM Bridge, Grover Imperial Tuners and Switchcraft Output Jacks and Kent Armstrong Pickups.Peerless has enlisted the help of Matt Gleeson, from Monty's Guitars of London, in its pickup designs two low-output humbuckers in the Jezebel that look very Gretsch-smart with their parallel cutouts. The desirable high quality Ebony components sourced from India are custom fabricated by another group of carefully selected skilled artisans. The Solid Spruce Tops, Bodies and necks are still made to Robert’s specs by Peerless Guitars, considered by several major brands as absolutely the highest quality OEM* in South Korea (See Note Below).

More specifically, during that period of time, many major brands either bought the best foreign factories, or in lieu of purchasing a factory, they simply bought the entire annual production capacity of a factory.Īs a result, moving forward, several high quality peripheral components are now produced by a wide variety of craftsmen and artisans for final assembly. In an ongoing commitment to offer high quality guitars to consumers at affordable prices, it is imperative for a successful manufacturer to stay abreast of the continuously changing costs of labor and raw materials in various international manufacturing sectors.Īfter finalizing the new model designs, Robert entered into seemingly endless negotiations, as the manufacturing environment had changed substantially since 2007-08, prior to the production of the first generation Conti Guitars. In late 2015, Robert was once again faced with the task of addressing many requests for design additions and other specifications. The last guitars of the first generation instruments were all acquired by owners in the mid part of 2015. In an effort to bring the Conti Equity Model to the consumer at a price under $2,000.00, Robert committed to a huge production volume of instruments, as that business decision served to offset the continually rising cost of raw materials for the duration of the first production run. As evidenced by numerous user photos and written commentaries, the Conti Equity Edition was well received by the jazz guitar community. Those guitars entered into global circulation in the late spring of 2009. In 2008, after the superb results of a one year evaluation of the first generation Conti Archtop, Robert commissioned Peerless Guitars to manufacture the first generation of Conti Guitars to his specs.
