The Gypsy Jazz Model

An interpretation inspired by Django Reinhardt

This model draws inspiration from the instruments associated with Django Reinhardt — not as a replica, but as a considered continuation of their spirit.

The original Selmer-Maccaferri guitars were designed for projection and articulation, capable of cutting through ensemble playing with clarity and attack. That directness of voice remains central here.

Rather than reproducing a historical form, this instrument refines it — preserving its immediacy and percussive response while introducing structural stability and balance suited to modern performance environments.

The result is a guitar that retains the unmistakable presence of the gypsy jazz tradition, yet feels grounded, controlled, and reliable beyond it.

Materials & Construction

The soundboard is crafted from Alpine spruce from the Jura region of France, selected for its dynamic headroom and focused projection.

The back and sides are laminated mahogany, sourced from reclaimed furniture. This construction method contributes to structural stability and tonal directness, while giving new purpose to aged material.

The mahogany neck provides balance and comfort, paired with a cocobolo fingerboard and rosewood bridge for articulation and durability. Bindings in mahogany and maple frame the instrument with quiet contrast.

The body is finished in traditional French polish, applied by hand in thin layers to preserve resonance and reveal depth in the wood.
