Antoine DiMauro / Antoine Di Mauro Grande Bouche 1950s / Guitar

Antoine Di Mauro, together with other master Sicilian luthiers (Busato, Oliveri Anastasio, etc) left Catania in the early 20th century to setup shop on the East Side of Paris. These makers would become legends as they went on to make some of the most iconic Selmer Maccaferri style instruments we know and love these days. Di Mauro could count himself as one of the most successfull and long-lasting luthiers of that generation, and his instruments were widely played and adored. Notable players include Moreno, Boulou Ferre, Patrick Saussois, Samy Daussat, Jean-Yves Dubanton, and even Pat Metheny! Guitars by Antoine Di Mauro were always regareded as player-grade instruments and were treated as such. This Grande Bouche built in the 1950s shows ample road wear, many repairs and other signs of use reflecting the fact that it was well-used. It sounds and plays as great as ever! Just pick it up, strum a few chords and you'll be enchanted by an impressive dry, woody and powerful tone. Condition is good; besides the expected signs of use for its age, the guitar has newer frets, has had a neck reset and several repairs. Includes newer hardshell case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
