Wanted Dupont 14 frets

BluesBop Harry

Hi,
I'm looking to buy a used Dupont in the USA or Canada.
I'm particularly interested in a D-hole MDC 50 or 50B, and would consider an MD 50 or 50B. 60 series also welcome.
No 12 fretters please

Write me at:

Please include your location and nearest international airport as I would fly to pick the guitar up personally.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Enrique,

I see Elderly has a couple of MD-50s at $3000:

Harry,

I would definitely contact Jacques Mazzoleni from www.gypsyguitars.com

He gets Dupont all the time, and if there is one model that he doesn't have right now, he will make it come for you straight from Dupont himself.
He's a great guy, and knows a lot about gypsy guitars.

Hey,
Thanks a lot guys!!
I might buy from Jacques Mazzoleni...but I want to see if I can save by buying used.

Joli Gadjo,
Thanks!

Still...
I'll be entertaining offers for a while, until the right one comes along.
So if you're selling your Dupont, drop me a line.

Gruhn Guitars in Nashville also has a couple of used Duponts for sale. I haven't seen or played them, so no opinion. I'll get there in October when I'm in town for the International Bluegrass Music Association FanFest.

They have one at www.12fret.com (but of course you would might have customs charges to deal with).

They've had 2 at Elderly Instrumets., but I guess they're sold one:

The interesting thing is that the prices that these shops advertise for used instruments are not far from the price of a new one....
