Guitar Gitane GJ-15 Gypsy Jazz - nando - 14-11-2016
Hi everyone! I'm new at the forum, and I would appreciate if someone could help me with this doubt: I have a lot of interest in buying this guitar model Gitane gj-15, I know it is designed for a more gypsy jazz sound, but I have an interest in using it to compose and do covers of various genres, and I would like to know If there is, really, any limitation to play other musical styles, such as progressive acoustic rock, indie, shoegaze, bossa nova etc.
Thank you in advance! /|\
Peace!
(and sorry for my bad english hahaha)

Had a look at the instrument via Google. It might be very well suited to playing the other styles you mention. The most important thing about an instrument is - are you comfortable playing it? Do you like the sound of it? Is the action too high/low for you? Do you need onboard electronics in order to amplify the instrument? Never buy an instrument online without trying it out first. Good luck with your adventures!
