Bentley, who recently recorded a live performance at the highly lauded Austin City Limits Studio, signed on to the Austin GuitarTown project by autographing a showcase guitar designed by Rich Knepprath. Bentley states that “Austin is one of the most creative and musical towns in the world and I am thrilled to be a part of an excellent example of that spirit, Austin GuitarTown.”
