Sure to be popular with any Gypsy Jazz guitar player. The gitane DG-255 is a faithful recreation of the Selmer-style jazz guitar that replaced the original Maccaferri design of the early 1930's. Easy recognizable in early photos of Django! With it's longer scale length is a breeze to play and the smaller soundhole gives the guitar it's characteristic snap, percussive and focused sound required by afficionados. There is nothing else on the market that even comes close. Let Gitane Put the Gypsy in Your Soul!
