Dell Arte's Hommage model has long been considered one of the best Favino copies. This Jimmy Rosenberg signature model is sort of a deluxe Hommage....like the Hommage it has Favino proportions (16 1/2" body and 675mm scale). But the Jimmy Rosenberg model has solid rosewood back and sides whereas the Hommage uses laminate. This guitar also has a bigtone pickup and MOP ornaments on the moustache pieces and tailpiece.
Other specs are: European Spruce top, three piece highly flamed Maple neck. Ebony fingerboard. Three on a plate Gold Schaller tuners with white buttons.
You can hear Jimmy Rosenberg using his signature Dell Arte on numerous recordings including: Rose Room, Djangos Tiger, and Trio. The tone is pure Favino! Strong nasal upper mids, deep low end, and loads of BARK! Setup is perfect with action at a very slinky 2.6mm. It is strung with 10 gauge Argentine strings...very, very easy to get around on.This instrument is in excellent condition, with some moderate fretwear, some pickwear on the top, and a few digns and scracthes on the body.
If you're a fan of big bodied Favino style guitars, this is the best bang for the buck under K. Only one, call now!
