Dell’Arte is the leader in handcrafted reproductions of Selmer & Maccaferri-style guitars. These highly stylized guitars feature classic appointments, such as the signature soundholes and mustache bridges, in honor of the guitars played by the great Django Reinhardt. Signature models by contemporary gypsy jazz heroes, Angelo Debarre and Robin Nolan, are made with specifications selected by the artists. This outstanding collection provides the best tone and design available for these incredibly unique guitars.
The Hommage features a dramatic D-shaped soundhole, a signature of the earliest Selmer/Maccaferri-style guitars. This unique model has a solid spruce top, rosewood back and sides, a maple neck, a rosewood mustache bridge, a nickel-plated Maccaferri-style tailpiece and a Favino-style rosette. One modern feature that greatly improves playability is the neck/body joint at the 14th fret. The D-hole on this guitar provides great projection and the rosewood fretboard provides incredible playability for fast-paced rhythm playing.
