I haven't heard any reviews on these GJ Archtop Hybrids.
Very attractive instruments. Cross betweem Selmer and Archtop.
Adjustable bridge, as in archtops, neck angle, arched back, X braced.
I wonder what they sound like? Could it be the best of two worlds, or just another guitar marketed for cross over players? i.e. Jazzers and Gypsy Jazzers...

I'd love to try one. What I do know is that they're made in China, have carved top & back, and Gordon Roberts, formerly of Eastman Strings is involved with the project. They make 2 models, the blond "Samois" and sunburst "Le Grand" which is apparently the same except for a deeper body.
Would love to hear from someone who's played one.
