Archtop guitars are generally known as Jazz guitars since they are often used  and lend themselves beautifully to Jazz and bebop music. Each guitar is hand carved by Robert to bring out the full potential in each piece of carefully selected tone wood. An x-braced top is typical at this time.   -music by Pat Malone-

"I love my Carbonaro archtop!
It has a very well balanced and consistant tonality throughout the tonal range, bass, mids, and highs. It has that big fat archtop sound I love. Bob Carbonaro is a great guy and does beautiful work."
—Pat Malone, Jazz guitarist Santa Fe New Mexico
