Sound Pure's Take
An absolute spot on Maccaferri-style guitar. Power and punch should be assumed with this design (longer scale, ladder braced, distinct bridge structure) but the richness, color, and immediately seductive presence of this instrument's voice are downright exciting! The little touches like the Dalmatian tortoise binding and those handsome ivoroid tuners make this guitar a consummate gem of the style. Much, much more guitar than the price tag implies!
Condition: Used, excellent

Saga is proud to be collaborating with John to make some of the finest Gypsy Jazz guitars available on the market today and with the popularity of his first signature Gitane guitar, the DG-300, we have decided to add a brand new and unique guitar as a matched set. Introducing the new Gitane DG-320 Modèle Jorgenson 14th-fret D-hole Gypsy Jazz guitar! This unique and custom design guitar combines all the playability of a traditional long scale petite bouche instruments, with the power of the original Maccaferri large mouth D-hole design. Already becoming one of the most sought after models in the Gitane line!
