Details
The Gitane DG-560 is a unique nylon-string guitar that blends classical and flamenco elements with a thoughtful Selmer-style aesthetic. Built with a comfortable cutaway body, it offers easy access to the upper frets, which is perfect for players with a flashier playing style. A solid Port Orford cedar top gives the DG-560 a clear, punchy voice with quick response, while the layered cypress back, sides, and cypress neck contribute to a bright, focused tone that's ideal for flamenco, classical, or even Gypsy-inspired playing. The 7-fan Torres-style bracing maximizes top vibration, delivering impressive projection and dynamic range. Whether you’re a classical player looking for something different, a flamenco player in need of cutting power, or a Django fan exploring nylon strings, the DG-560 is a versatile and great sounding option. Rather than simply recreating an original Selmer design, this is a thoughtful and modern take on a style that dates back to the 1930s. This example is in great condition with only minor playwear on the body, and the playability is excellent. It comes with a nice Access gig bag.
