Outstanding DG-560

First, Michael was very easy to deal with. Great customer service. I always liked the Gitane DG-500. Joined at the 12th fret, it sounded great and was an intimate player. The DG-560 takes it to a whole new level. The fit and finish on the guitar is at custom shop, hand-built level. The attention to detail is obvious throughout. Simply a beautiful instrument. It's very light and responsive, gives that satisfying lively vibration against the ribs when its played. Strung with nylon strings, it has a softness and expressiveness that players of other styles than Gypsy Jazz will appreciate (that includes me). I will be using it primarily as a solo instrument. When asked how she thought the guitar sounded to her, a friend said, "Passionate and romantic." I'm not sure I would have used those words, but the DG-560 is a responsive, beautiful, easy to play instrument with very wide dynamic range.
