Once in a while something odd and rare turns up, and this is definitely one of those guitars, a Antoine DiMauro Boogie Woogie, D hole model, played and used with quite a bit of wear, but also with excellent playability, the right Bark, the right looks, and that old matured woody gypsy tone so typical for the DiMauro Boogie Woogie models. Plenty of Volume mixed with that typical old-wood Gypsy jazz dymanics. Features a big and chunky neck to start with, solid spruce top, lamited mahogany back/sides and mahogany neck, original tuners, original tailpiece, ebony bridge and Rosewood Fingerboard with dot inlays. A dent in the back is repaired with wood and a bit of wood plaster, but otherwise it's in good crackfree condition. the orginal pickguard is inlaid in the top. Quite a bit of wear, but the way we like it. A magnificent guitar all over with new cool case.
