Ok Django guitar fanatics:
Here's your chance to own an early guitar from one if the great modern American luthiers: I'm selling my Craig Bumgarner.
Here's the specs:
Selmer body style
Moabi back and sides
Western Cedar top.
Very light; extremely light guitar. (3.48lbs!!!)
Plays well with traditional action- around 4mm at the twelfth fret.
It is currently a rhythm machine.
Banging loud; and deep midrange; it still has that snap.
See attached photos.
The guitar will be available for viewing/pick up at Django in June.
I'm including the gig bag it came with.
Please msg me for pricing info. It will be cheaper then a new one!
Craig will be at Django in June; and he has no guitars for sale!! A new one will cost you 3000+a case.
It has normal wear and tear for a guitar of this type being used by a pro.
Snap up this brilliant guitar!
Here's a link to craig's site with a post about this one:

and some photos of some famous guys playing it:
Herve G. playing the guitar in samoreau 2012
B. Ferre playing the guitar on the train back to Paris after Samois 2012
And finally, me with the guitar during Franglais set at Brooklyn Djangology
Thanks,

Ps. so some people complained last time I didn't post a price - so - 2400. A new one will cost you three+ and several months wait.
Pps. if you want to see the guitar at Django in June- It will be with Luke Hendon; or Craig.
