Over the past several decades Leo Eimers has been one of the prominent builders
of Selmer Maccaferri guitars in the Netherlands. Based in Almere, just
outside of Amsterdam, Eimers builds his instruments entirely himself
by hand. He is particularly well respected as a student of "Golden
Age" luthiers such as Maccaferri, Selmer, Busato, and Favino. He uses
his knowledge of these luthiers to build some of the most authentic
and well constructed Selmer copies available. His instruments have been
used by many professionals over the years, most notably Stochelo and
Nous'che Rosenberg of the Rosenberg Trio, Robin Nolan, Boulou Ferre,
and Wawau Adler.
This is Leo's Solitude model which pay homage to Selmer's original roundhole models from the 19930s: https://www.djangobooks.com/Item/1938-selmer-roundhole-448
This instrument features a spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides, and a walnut neck which has a Selmer style grafted headstock. A set of brass Schaller three on a platetuners and a brass HSC tailpiece are included
Weighing in at 4.25 lbs, this guitar is light weight and resonant. The round soundhole yields a more flatop like tone, with more bass and mids than a typical Gypsy guitar. The highs are very round and warm, resulting thick, mellifluous leads.
This instrument is in excellent condition and is set up with easy playing 3mm action. There is a large scratch on the lower bass bout of the top. Otherwise, the guitar is near mint!
