Introducing the newest member of the Gitane Signature Series of Gypsy Jazz guitar, the Gitane DG-330 Model Jorgenson "Tuxedo" model! Like its namesake, this guitar is the perfect star of any "Black Tie" affair. "I have wanted to have a black Selmer-style guitar made for a number of years, ever since seeing one in a photo from the 50's made in France. The lines of these guitars are so elegant; I thought it would be very classy to have one all in black and white, like a tuxedo. The result is way beyond my expectations, it looks absolutely stunning-sometimes I like to just sit and look at it! So far I have used it on stage, and in the studio for recording some of my new CD. It has a very clear tone, and it sustains very well. The intonation all around the neck is exceptional too!" Both Saga and John invite you to see for yourself why these guitars will satisfy the "Gypsy in your Soul!”
