Faithful recreation of a rare original vintage selmer guitar as
played by and a favorite of John Jorgenson:
"I took it with me
to Samois...and it held its own in many a jam session, with a
lead tone audible over as many as 8 rytham guitars all playing
at once!"
  John Jorgenson used the DG-250M on his “Franco-
American Swing” album.  

“This is one SEXY guitar!”

“even Django himself would have loved playing one of these!”

“Superb construction and finish, and its incredible similarity to
the original ‘Maccaferri’ construction plans.”

“I . . . can say without question that this guitar is very
underpriced for its sonic abilities . . . the guitar's sound
compares very favorably to guitars costing 5 to 10 times as
much . . . .”

“It's very loud, even with the lightest Argentine strings and it
has the solid, middly punch that lovers of the Maccaferri
sound want.”
