Oldschool 48 De Luxe- New

3750€ outside EU (excl. 20% VAT)

Reissue of the legendary jazz guitar Selmer style made by my grandfather in the 40s and 50s, and also popularized in the early 2000s by the prestigious guitarist Dorado Schmitt (Vienna festival with Bireli Lagrene). It has the particularity to have an arched back (curved molded) without back braces offering to the guitar a big sound projection and characteristic tone of the time, the famous “Oldschool sound”. With his intermediate D hole format, designed by my grandfather and become one of the distinguishing features of the brand, it offers maximum versatility in terms of playability. The mold used was the one used by my grandfather in time and materials including mahogany and cedar top from a very old stock from the years 40, that belonged therefore to my grandfather and then my father. According to the original, its neck is mahogany integrating a trussrod intended to optimize playing comfort, and has a vintage patina type finish. This guitar received glorious reviews in Guitarist Acoustic magazine.
