Don't forget that Jimmy had two of these models of Doug Kyle guitars.. They are very similar but not exactly the same. I've published this post because I know the seller and I know this guitar (I didn't think he would sell it though). There is no fake, I saw the appraisal of Rudi Bults, which proves the originality of the instrument. The guitar had been sold 6 years ago through EBay, and even the website Django Station had put a link the 25 of february 2008 ( http://www.djangostation.com/+La-guitare-a-Jimmy-en-vente-sur+.html ) so I can assure you there is no fake. The best would be to contact him if you have any doubt.
if i'm not mistaken this belongs to my friend drom blanchard, it was definitely jimmy's guitar, i forget the story of how he acquired... he plays with ritary gaguenetti's dad:
I've just seen your comments and I'm writting to you here to assure you that the guitar I am selling on eBay is definitely Jimmy Rosenberg's guitar as Denis Chang said just above. "Djoukelington" is right as well, Jimmy had two of these guitars by D.Kyle, and the one I am selling is not the one on which there was written "Jimmy Rosenberg" on the head plate (I've made a mistake dowloading a photography of Jimmy with the other one, that's why I take it out), but it's the other one (on the picture of Jimmy with the jack cable).
Moreover I insist on the fact that I have the certificate of originality and the estimation made by the luthier who bought this guitar to Jimmy years ago. I don't sell "fake products" (sorry for my English which is not very good). I am a very good friend of Ritary Gaguenetti who can ensure you that this is Jimmy's guitar (he once played on it when he played with him a long time ago).
Bye! And if somebody have any question don't hesitate to ask me.
