Since we're a bit off-topic, I may as well mention that this beauty is still for sale (as played by Joscho):
$700 takes it, case and all, along with some top secret dvd surprises...
(Though no Django in June or Samois '06 yet-I don't know what's up with the Canada/US mail...I suspect our border guards are having the time of their lives!
It plays and sounds great. I play it through a Polytone Mini Brute and I get that "Joe Pass Jazz" sound. I also do some Django style on it. I have more pictures and Rumley has a Web site. Thanks , Gary

What brand guitar would be good for this music? A Dell'Arte acoustic/electric?
