Vinetto guitars are some of the most sought after relic guitars around today. One of the reasons is because they are often produced in limited quantities, so anyone who wants to own one of these fine instruments has to jump on them right away or risk losing the chance. Another reason, and a more important one, is that they are simply very finely made guitars. Well, Vinetto has done it again with the Vinetto Legato Classic 255 Series. This is yet another top quality instrument in their list of great guitars.
The Vinetto Legato Classic 255 relic guitar features a traditional 25” scale length neck. It also uses Vinetto’s unique “under the bed” patina finish, and it’s available in a number of different colors and pickup combinations. You can also select the trem version if you want the Legato softtail model. The Legato also uses a new front arm contour that Vinetto created just for this guitar.
If you’d like to purchase a Vinetto Legato Classic 255, they are available from a number of different retailers. However, since Vinetto only works with certain companies, you may not simply be able to walk into the store and buy one. Be sure to factor that into your purchasing decision.
While working at Fender, Vince Cunetto was one of the designers who started the whole relic craze. Now he creates his own relic guitars under the Vinetto brand. One of these is the Artifact SC 56 WG. This relic is based on one of the guitars from the mid-fifties. 
It was during this time that guitars were undergoing a change, and the Artifact SC 56 WG represents the best of those changes, including things like the change from the V neck to the C shape neck and the move from flat poles to staggered poles.
The SC 56 WG features 21 frets and has a neck made from solid maple. The fretwire is modified vintage, and the radius is 9.5 inches. It used bone for its nut material, and if has a Gotoh vintage style tuner. The body itself is sold and is made out of swamp ash. Over on the bridge, you’ll find 3 vintage brass saddles and a Glendale in-tone cold roll. The pickguard is done in a single layer of white rigid vinyl. The SC 56 WG features a three-way pick up selector and master tone and volume controls. It also has lollar vintage T pickups. Read more
Vinetto Guitars is a custom guitar shop that believes in creating the best guitars possible using both traditional methods and modern techniques. When Vince Cunetto founded the company, he realized that while many new ideas and different techniques had been used over the past 60 years, it was the classic designs and ideas that were still the best. 
Of course, he also realized that some new guitar making methods had merit, too, and so he set out to create instruments that used the best of both. The result is a series of hand-crafted instruments that are top quality and will create amazing sounds. The professionals at Vinetto carefully select the body and neck woods, use their own tested techniques in building the instrument, and then finish it off with an all-nitrocellulose finish. Each and every guitar is personally checked by Vince Cunetto before it’s shipped to ensure that it meets his high standards. Read more
