La France Luthiers J'Attendrai Petite Bouche Gypsy Jazz

For your consideration, we present another gorgeous hand-built offering from LaFrance Luthiers.  The J'Attendrai Petite Bouche was handcrafted by Ron LaFrance with meticulous attention to detail with the highest-quality tonewoods and components as the epitome of the Maccaferri spirit.  Translated to "I Will Wait," the J'Attendrei was built with care and masterful craftsmanship and may be the Gypsy guitar for which you've been waiting a lifetime.  The back and sides are composed of a highly-figured Walnut/Mahogany/Mahogany laminate and are mated to a fine piece of Adirondack Spruce for the top which was harvested from a 60+ year old piano soundboard.  The Solid Walnut neck is shaped in a softer shouldered "Modified Selmer" profile, topped with an Ebony fingerboard graced with Mother-Of-Pearl dot inlays.  For hardware, LaFrance called upon Alain Cola and utilized a matched antiqued set of ornate open-gear tuners and vintage-correct tailpiece.  The  body and soundhole are beautifully contrasted with dark brown tortoise and a French coin at the tip of the headstock punctuates this exquisite package with pure heritage excellence.  This guitar will set your Gypsy Spirit ABLAZE with its incredible volume, outstanding tone, and unparalleled playability.
