These Roccia conversions are a fascinating subplot of the Selmer story....
Hi Michael,
I noted that Selmer #98 you recently posted had previously been seen in out of your shop in 2018.
I'm assuming this guitar above is the same 1933 Conversion that you sold in 2015?
I would think that reselling these instruments is a normal part of this genre since there are only a few circles that are interested and would purchase one of these vintage instruments. It must be like seeing old friends again when they come back to you!
Either way, it was interesting to learn the fascinating story of Marco Roccia at Clifford Essex on a recent thread and to read about his connection doing this Selmer conversion.
@billyshakes Yes, it's quite common that guitars come back many years after being sold. When it's stuff of this caliber, it's always a pleasure to get reacquainted!
