    Love love love Jampro! My daughter has been a student for almost 8 years now. She has taken voice,…read moreguitar, bass and piano lessons here, but has found her passions to be vocals and bass. She has been a part of several amazing bands through Jampro, playing both at their awesome on-site stage and at festivals and businesses here in town. The improvement in her musical talents has been a beautiful and impressive journey that continues to leave me in awe. All of the teachers have been excellent and top caliber musicians themselves. Jampro often served as a safe space for my daughter during some difficult times through the years. They treated her like family and I will forever be grateful. The facility is top notch and every thing you'd expect from a high end studio and more. They even have courses to learn audio production and DJ. I invite anyone to take a tour as you will be wowed by all they offer. The programs are not cheap, but I've found them to be worth every penny and a truly worthy investment in my daughter.

    Let me ask you a few questions... Would you believe that…read morethere's a 10,000 square foot facility in South Reno that has a staff of masters level musicians with performance backgrounds that provide instruction on guitar, piano, voice, and stringed instruments in 11 monitored and sound proof practice studios? Would you believe in the same 10,000 sq ft. facility there's a full scale production studio complete with top of the line computers, mixing and sound boards, and an isolation room to record vocals? Would you believe that in that same 10,000 sq. ft. facility there's a 500 person capacity theater with a performance stage decked out with state-of-the-art lights, smoke, and sound that's used to host special events and provide student bands with the real deal experience of playing before a live audience? What about if I told you they also had a full scale production lab where you can learn how to produce music and even learn how to DJ on the best digital turntables available? And last but not least, would you believe me if I told you they also have a music retail store with everything you could possibly want or need, including exclusive brands of effects pedals and other equipment? Welcome to Jampro Music Factory. This is seriously a place like no other, with no detail spared, and a passion for providing the best music education experience you can imagine. Close your eyes and picture the quintessential Hollywood recording studio, complete with wood floors, beautifully decorated walls, and big open windows to see what's going on, and that's what you'll find at Jampro. To me it seems like the new businesses that have opened in the last year have really done a lot to elevate the standards of our community. From bars and restaurants, to our local farmers and artisans, and everything in between. It seems like each week I learn about one more business adding to this momentum, and this past week, it was Jampro Music Factory. Thanks to Robert and Ly S., their Yelp photos, check-ins, and reviews, I now know what it's all about and I can't wait to return!

    I met Benz in 2008 at a guitar festival and played an instrument he made at that time. I asked him…read moreto build one for me because I was interested in some new features including a double-top, elevated fingerboard and a sound port. I expected the guitar he built to feel basically the same as my others, but to sound louder because of the double-top. And louder it is!! But it is so much more than that! There is richness and purity in the tone that I have not experienced before. It projects very well with clarity in both the treble and bass. And it hasn't even 'opened up' yet! When it does, it will be even more amazing. In addition to the excellent tonal qualities, it is also easier and more comfortable to play. I requested a Hauser body style because they are a little smaller. Benz had the idea to try a wedge design that would make the guitar smaller on the lower bout where my arm crosses over it, but wider in other areas allowing for more projection. In addition, I requested an arm rest and a custom made rosette. These two features of the guitar are particularly eye-catching and evidence of the high level of craftsmanship of this instrument. In short, I just have to say that I love this guitar! - Andrea Cannon www.AndreaCannon.com

    Benz crafts superb classical concert guitars, and in my opinion sells his instruments for far less…read morethan they are worth. I first played a Benz Tschannen at GSP in San Francisco and was blown away by the volume. Benz has shifted to making double-tops exclusively now, incorporating new design features such as adjustable truss rods, soundports, and elevated fingerboards. And they are loud! Still, very well balanced. He's been a joy to work with, very accomodating on my choice of woods and designs, and I'm eagerly awaiting delivery of my custom guitar. I'll update when I receive it but based on the other Benz Tschannen concert guitars I've played, I'll be keeping his review at 5 stars. For $6,200, it's a great deal when you consider other top quality double-tops from luthiers like Redgate and Dammann go for $10-$15k. Don't expect his guitars to stay this cheap for long.... ******************************** UPDATE: I received my guitar in late 2010 after a ~9month build time. Kudos to Benz for taking the time to drive out to San Francisco and hand-deliver my new guitar, and spending time with me setting it up and fine tuning to my playing. You can feel the passion for his craft just radiating from this guy! I'm obsessed! I've been playing it for 2 years now and it's starting to open up a little more. Regardless, it was fantastic on day 1. Benz has crafted a stunning instrument with amazing volume and tone. The range of timbre I can achieve with this guitar is fantastic, from muted to sharp in a just a minimal RH shift. The volume is incredible. Lots more I could say about his work, but I'll leave it at that. As promised, I'm leaving his review at 5 stars for both the incredible artistry and workmanship he delivered, and for the attention to details and service he provided in making sure my new guitar was truly 'MY' guitar. Awesome!
