A guitar player since the age of four, Joe Bonamassa is a virtuosic musician with mind-blowing dexterity. BB King discovered the 12-year-old Bonamassa, sparking the beginning of his career. "Joe’s potential is so great that he hasn’t begun to scratch the surface," King later told an interviewer. "He’s young, with great ideas. He’s one of a kind, a legend before his time." Bonamassa would go on to tour with King as well as with John Lee Hooker, Albert Collins, and many, many others.

Among echoes of BB King, Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan are elements that are all his own. At critical junctions, Bonamassa launches into unexpected, body-rocking new scales, riffs with finger-cramping flurry, securing his place among fellow young guns like Robert Randolph and Derek Trucks. With this kind of ongoing growth and incredible talent, it’s clear that Joe Bonamassa is one of the most exciting young artists in music.

Joe Bonamassa on Gigliotti guitars

I've been amazed by these guitars since the first time I played one. They've been great in the studio and on the road. They're road ready instruments, consistent, powerful and always in tune - only feeding back when you want it, which is saying a lot for this type of guitar. Day in and day out they're ready to play.

The fans love them too. People are constantly asking me about them. I can't see it when I'm playing, but they tell me that, under the stage lights, the guitar looks like it's on fire! They've never seen anything like it. I get so many questions I've started handing out cards for Gigliotti Guitars.

My tech Bryan never has to tune these guitars, they always sound great and they have a unique balance metal to wood that give them there own sound and feel. In my opinion it is just a matter of time before they are as big as PRS, cause simply they are just better than anything being made right now. I am just honored to be playing them.
