UK auction - four gypsy guitars

Jangle_JamieJangle_Jamie Scottish HighlandsNew De Rijk, some Gitanes and quite a few others

A UK auction coming up in September has four gypsy jazz guitars. Probably the most interesting is a 12 fret Jacques Favino D hole together with a Selmer hard case. Is that an original Selmer case I wonder? If it is, it might be worth as much as the guitar! https://www.guitar-auctions.co.uk/sale/244/380/1982-Jacques-Favino-D-hole-gypsy-jazz-guitar-made-in-Paris-France

There is a Rene Gerome kidney hole, a Dell Arte Jimmy Rosenberg and a rather nice Alex Polyakov oval hole. He posted quite a lot on Facebook showing his build processes. Great attention to detail, and he was even making his own HSC style machine heads. I haven't seen anything from him for a while now.

    I feel that is low for the Gerome, but I guess it depends on the knowledge of whoever is bidding. Casual buyer would probably only pay that for a "random" guitar.
