Stéphane Sanseverinoknows pretty well our guitars as he has been playing on our gypsy swing guitars for a long time. As he also plays banjo, he asked Maurice Dupont to make him one with the particularity of having the neck of a jazz guitar.

Here is the result, the instrument having been made by Maurice himself !

- It all starts by making the neck	- Careful of your fingers !
- Cutting of the mother of pearl inlay shapes, all by hand !	- No, Maurice is not angry against a neck that he doesn't like! You have to do the fret slots .
- Sanding and put in thickness of the fingerboard .	- Headstock finishing .
- So, Maurice does it remind you of the “ assembly kit construction games” of your Childhood ?	- First assembly test to see if nothing is missing!
- Very meticulous verification of the adjusting between the neck and body.	- Ok, everything seems fine. Let's dismantle everything and do the finishing .
- Quick visit of the artist, impatient like a child waiting for his toy. Last adjustment and ...	- "What a F... sound "
- They are really clowning around as children !	- There, two happy guys ! question : Who looks like most a fish ?
- Here it is, the beast on stage ! (picture : Didier Pallages)	See the final result by clicking here or on the picture
