Building The Selmer Maccaferri Guitar

The ultimate resource for making a gypsy jazz guitar! Renowned luthier Michael Collins' DVD set complements his definitive book Building A Selmer Maccaferri Guitar. He invites you into his shop as he constructs a reproduction of the "petite bouche" model, made famous by jazz great Django Reinhardt. Watch every step in detail, from making the molds, to laminating the sides and back in the original design, to French polishing the final finish.
