I've played this guitar. One of the very best Duponts I've ever had my hands on, LOUD and great tone. The ones Maurice built himself back in the 90s are very special, much more desirable than the ones built by his assistants.

WOW! A 22year old square label Dupont.
Don't see them up for sale much.
Are there any video's to hear the Guitar?
In 1986, Maurice made the first copy of the Selmer-Maccaferri type of guitar at the request of Lucien Viollet, a gypsy guitarist with the band Romano Swing. These Gypsy guitars have since become the leading product of the workshop, representing about 50 per cent of guitar sales. This international renown has been built up thanks to the confidence of artists like Raphael Fays, Biréli Lagrène, Marc Fosset, as well as Romane with whom Maurice has begun an even closer collaboration. The rest of the production is represented by classical, steel string, flat top, archtop and electric guitars.
If you are in the market for a guitar, this is the one. It sounds and plays great. I played this at DiJ last year and for me, it was the best guitar I played. If I had the cash in my hands, I would have bought this immediately and in actuality tried after DiJ to purchase this. I have something I am pleased at, but would strongly recommend this guitar.

I own a terrific square label Dupont and have played three others. All were among the best Gypsy guitars I have ever played, including Selmers, a Busato, Favinos and VR's.
I bet the seller of this guitar will have some regrets and the buyer will be thrilled.
