$250 for a case? seems a bit high. if i buy it without, can i get a case later? i'd like to see if it fits in one of the cases i have now.

Sure, you can purchase a case later. Although, generally Gypsy guitars won't fit in standard cases due to the unusual size of these instruments.

I have the guitar and want to get a the shell case where can I get one?

We sell the Superior Deluxe cases which are made for the Gitane guitars.

Wait... the guitar without the case costs $120 more than the guitar with the case?

With the case, the body is laminated (sides), without is all solid wood

These instruments are distributed by a company called Saga Music. They partner with small but high quality manufacturers around the world, both here in the US, Europe and Asia. Due to the agreements they have with the manufacturers it is difficult to locate a "home page" for Gitane since they have an exclusive arrangement with Saga. You can go to sagamusic.com and read about there company and mission statement. Not only guitars but a very wide range of stringed instruments. I can tell you this from first hand experience with this guitar, it is extremely well made and the price is far below MSRP. I have been playing it extensively since I received it and each session just puts me more in love with this guitar. No blemishes, the frets are perfect and I took it to my local luthier who said a set up was already done, he didn't feel the need to do a thing.
