| About |
A Shelley Park gypsy jazz guitar embodies the authentic classic sound and look of the original Selmer instruments, while reflecting a contemporary approach to lutherie. Each Park guitar is lovingly hand made, incorporating the proven artistry of traditional craftmanship and the advantages of the best modern building techniques. The design and construction are based on the original Selmer Macafferri specifications, ensuring both the classic Selmer beauty and the unique richness and projection desired by gypsy jazz players. Every Park Guitar is a tasteful balance between authenticity and subtle originality, an instrument that is both a classic and a unique expression. Shelley’s craftsmanship and deep appreciation for the subtleties and qualities of fine wood, combined with her affinity for acoustic music led her naturally to a career in lutherie. Her love of the music of Django Reinhardt further focused her lutherie skills, constructing guitars based on the original designs of Mario Maccaferri and the Selmer Company of France. Shelley D. Park has now been building fine guitars in Vancouver, British Columbia since 1991. Shelley also brings a wealth of listening and playing experience to her craft. She played rhythm guitar in the popular gypsy jazz ensemble Pearl Django for 6 years, and has had a long and intimate connection to the classic Selmer guitar sound. Shelley’s exquisite craftmanship and attention to detail are reflected in every instrument she builds. |
