GUITARES MAURICE DUPONT
Instruments currently built in France. Previously distributed by Paul Hostetter of Santa Cruz, CA.
After spending a number of years repairing and restoring Selmer/Maccaferri guitars, luthier Maurice Dupont began building Selmer replicas that differ in the fact the Dupont features a one-piece neck with adjustable trussrod inside (Selmers had a three-piece neck), and better construction materials. Dupont also hand builds his own classical, flamenco, steel-string, and archtop guitars. Both the Excellence and Privilege archtops are offered in 16 in. or 17 in. bodies, and with a Florentine or Venetian cutaway. For further information on you can try contacting Dupont directly but it is unknown if he is still producing guitars (see Trademark Index).
