Over 4 hours of content on 2 DVDs featuring: A two-hour documentary of Bob Benedetto including a complete biography, interviews with family, friends, players and industry professionals, archtop guitar construction/innovations, and his relationship with Fender Musical Instruments and The Benedetto Players. The Making of Anima e Corpo, a one-of-a-kind instrument featuring the signatures of eighty of the world's most acclaimed jazz guitarists. Never-before-seen concert footage from 2000 Living room 'jam sessions' from the early '90s featuring Howard Alden, Jack Wilkins, Jimmy Bruno and Bucky and John Pizzarelli Photo Galleries Bloopers DVD-ROM files containing a virtual tour of Bob's Pennsylvania workshop (QuikTime required), price lists and advertising materials from 1975 to the present and Bob's log book documenting every one of his almost 500 archtop guitars made to date.
A fascinating and gripping film. Highly enjoyable and educational. Through a biographical account and interviews, it gives a great insight into the respect that Bob and Cindy Benedetto have earned over the years from the jazz guitar alumni for their fine guitars. There's some nice playing on it, too. I would recommend this to anybody with an interest in the history of the archtop guitar.
