    Just noticed it seems to have a fret marker at 10 on top but 9 on the side. One of them must have been moved at some point.

    Hi Ben...no dots were moved. Most vintage Gypsy guitars don't have side dots, so when people add them sometimes they opt for a 9th fret marker (but leave the original fingerboard marker at the 10th). That's what happened in this case...will cost $10 to move the side dot.

    This one is a monster! A truly classic Favino...it just evokes the 70s Gypsy vibe ala Boulou, Hans'che, Raphael Fays, etc. It's a real ball breaker! :D:D:D:D:D

    The Macias model is darker, warmer, and more rounded by comparison. A sweeter guitar for sure....
