Altamira Model M01 Selmer-Maccaferri Gypsy Jazz Guitar

The Altamira Model M01 is a Selmer Maccaferri style guitar especially suitable for gypsy jazz music.

Best known as the favored instrument of jazz legend, Django Reinhard, the Selmer-Maccaferri boasts a unique design. Selmer, a French manufacturer, produced the instrument from 1932 to about 1952.

Selmer partnered with the Italian guitarist and luthier, Mario Maccaferri, to produce a line of acoustic guitars based on Maccaferri’s unorthodox design. Although Maccaferri’s association with Selmer ended in 1934, the company continued to make several models of this guitar until 1952. This iconic guitar design is strongly associated with gypsy jazz guitar virtuoso, Django Reinhardt.

 With its squarish bouts and either a “D”-shaped or longitudinal oval sound hole, the Selmer is distinguished by a fairly large body. Plus, you also find a cutaway in the upper right bout. Like a mandolin, the strings pass over a movable bridge and are gathered at the tail. The positioning of this movable bridge is aided two “moustache” markers, which are affixed to the soundboard.

The top of this guitar design is gently arched or domed. But rather than the violin-style carving used in archtop guitars, this is achieved by bending a flat piece of wood.

The Altamira Model M01 Gypsy-Jazz guitar is available with either an oval or D shaped sound hole. With flamed maple back and sides and matte finish, this guitar encapsulates the traditional design.

Capturing the quintessential punchy and growling manouche tone, the Model M01 is exceptional value for money.

Zildjian K Custom Dark HiHats are a strong choice for drummers who aren’t seeking just a darker sound, but also demand a lot of color and articulation from their hi hats. These hi hats can be described as warm, full-bodied in tone with a clean stick sound. Delivering a fast, bright “chick” that is distinctly crisp and cuts through. K Custom Dark cymbals are a great choice for drummers who lean towards a mixed blend of darker tonal colors that project with more character and nuance.
