Busato ? ...or not ?

first post. please be gentle 😉

pix are from a well known auction site. described as being 30's / 40's Rue d’Orgement era Busato. it does have the deeply arched back. can't tell anything about the top. is the sellers claim accurate ?

TIA

    Looks pretty Busato to me as well.

    Very arched back, it's a soundhole shape used on a few . . .

    headstock correct,

    Top looks a tiny bit sunk.

    Tailpiece likely not orginial.

    Tuners look pretty original.

    Wondering if it was refinshed?


    good grab if the price is low enough! (IMHO!)

    @Wim Glenn thanks... most of the info I've been able to gather came from JazzManouche.de and they seem to focus on later and / or higher end models. (in a general sense I'd appreciate input on the info contained there)

    @billyshakes thanks!

    @bbwood_98 thanks for your insights. agreed on the tail piece. would the original have been the BB style usually seen ?

    tuners are Delaruelle & claimed to be OG. price is still being negotiated.

    thanks again to all!

    tail piece from a "1930's" Maison du Jazz claimed to be 100% original.
