Has a very chimey sound. I can understand when Django said Selmer guitars sound like a grand piano compared to the American archtop. Assuming this is a close approximation of what it would've sounded like brand new. And this Holo still available...
Talk about chimey, a long time ago I had a later-40s Selmer (another story!). Argentines didn't exist in the U.S., so I used bronze strings (no one here knew any better). The guitar almost whistled, it was so chimey, overtones constantly.

This one sounds so much like Django's tone on the Rome Sessions!
