DJANGO and NUEVA Archtop Guitars

Archtops have always occupied lofty digs in the guitarist's mind. Sophisticated, powerful, and elegant in ways that a solidbody or flattop can only dream of, the Archtop has a serious musician vibe that's practically etched in stone.
Archtop is the "creme de la creme" of Lutherie.
Art Thompson.
