This guitar is nothing short of a Maple extravaganza! It features gorgeous European Maple back, sides, and neck...and has maple binding as well!
Although this is a used 2004 guitar, it looks cleaner than many new Duponts! It is in near perfect condition and plays and sounds great!
Action is set at 3.5mm and is currently strung with 10 gauge Argentines. Action can easily be lowered to 3mm and the strings could be beefed up to 11 gauge.
I really love the sound of this one...the Maple gives the guitar a nice "bite," which helps balance the thicker lows that D holes always have. In many ways this guitar has the perfect compromise between bass and treble. It's what everyone is looking for, a warm D hole that can still produce punchy leads! Once again, Maurice Dupont comes up with the goods...
This guitar is a fantastic deal at 3,500, you'd pay 4,500 for a new one (possibly more with the value of the dollar quickly sinking).
