Did Django ever use a whammy bar?

A strange find on a French auction site, but if anyone wants to try a SelMac with a Bigsby......
Don't blame me, I guess someone thought it was a good idea !

If Django had seen this, and used it, we'd all be chasing after this setup; and luthiers would be making them!
That’s great, somebody thought of a way to make it go out of tune frequently!
Can't imagine what sort of reinforcement that top would need. I'm sure that big hunk o' lead on top really makes it sing regardless....🤷♂️
There's also a video out there with a guy who put a Floyd Rose tremolo on a Selmer style guitar. Amazing player too.
Here's that video Buco mentioned!

@adrian wait...he lives in Amsterdam?
Is that a Holo?
It says AL Guitare whatever the heck that is/was
There are a couple of other Frankensteins on the same lot

bizarre
And they're all branded AL. Usually nobody is going through the trouble of engraving that detailed logo if the instrument isn't of high quality. But I can't see these guitars being high quality instruments. So weird.
Yes indeed! Carlos (the tremolo on Selmer guitar guy) lives in Amsterdam.
