    There should be at least a couple Holo guitars there. I'm bringing mine, its a Busato style model. Wrembel has two now, Benoit Convert has one also, as does Jeff Radiach. Hopefully they will bring them!

    Adrian will have his AJL and Olivier may have his ALD with him. Should be an awesome collection of old and new guitars for everyone to check out!

    I am definitely bringing both Selmers ('32 d-hole and '51 oval), the d-hole Busato, the '64 Favino, and the Joseph di Mauro. I addition I'll probably bring two of the following: '30's Busato, '01 Favino Jazz S (Michel St. Pierre is bringing a Jazz N!), and perhaps the Manouche Concert Model. I thought about the '39 ES-150, but Charlie Christian doesn't exactly fit in a Django event.

    It looks like we may have more guitars and more variey than last year!
    I've never been a guitar player, but I've played one on stage.

    Cool. I look forward to trying those out. I had a great Holo for a while but wound up selling it to finance another purchase. His Busatos sound really good in the videos that I've seen, and the one that Alfonso Ponticelli has is a great one, too.

    Will do, Craig. The 30's Busato is being sold (What was I thinking?) but the new owner has given me permission to bring it for one last Django in June go-round. Denis used it for rhythm last year in the concerts. It got an amazing, and very unique voice, almost baritone in the treble world of gypsy jazz.

    If you want an advanced listen, both guitars are featured in a video posted from last year of Joscho, Gustav and Denis playing "Mr. Sandman". there's a link on the forum somewhere, or you can find it on YouTube. My employer just blocked access to streaming video this week, so I can't get the link for you.

    It is way beyond great, redblues!. I'm sure Samois is fabulous, and I hope to get there someday, but Django in June is an incredibly special event. Smaller and more intimate and a wonderful opportunity to connect with a whole bunch of people who are dedicated to Django and his music. It would be great if you could join us someday.
