Stephen Bennett and "The Max"

A Columbia model ended up in the VERY capable hands of none the less than Stephen Bennett!

Stephen and his wife Nancy came over for dinner while in Italy for Stephen's EU tour, and he fell in love with a cedar topped Columbia... and took it home! 

Now he has been recording with it in his gargantuan "Nutctacker Project" and has been taking it on the road alongside his precious Wingert harp guitar, his vintage National and Carol baritone.

He strung it up with silk and steel strings for extra buttery playability, and the very responsive top works like a charm even with the lower tension.
