Selmer guitar questions...

harlemjoysharlemjoys Central Jersey✭✭✭
Bear with me if some of these have already been answered...

Did Selmer back in the day ever make a 14 fret to the body D hole? Or did they only ever put out the 12 fret to the body oval hole?

What is the significance of the terms "petite bouche" and "grand bouche"? Why are they applied to the D and oval hole guitars?

Did Selmer ever have any other artist models other than the "Django Reinhardt"?

What year was the last Selmer guitar made?

I saw an article from the 70's or 80's with Mario Macc holding a new D hole made by Ibanez, does anyone have one? If so, how do they play?

Sorry for all the questions, these are things that have been buzzing in my head lately...thanks for your input.

    "Petit Bouche" = "Small Mouth" = Oval hole.

    "Grand Bouche" = "Large Mouth" = D hole.

    I'll leave your harder questions to the "Selmologists" on the forum. ;)
