In Stock Marc Maingard Instruments

Marc Maingard lives far away in Capetown, South Africa. That is probably why he has developed a unique instrument that is all his own. His style is clearly inspired by his surrounding and his tone by the beauty of his world. He has a love of guitar making that is apparent in our dealings with him and it's easy for us to get excited about his guitars. Every Maingard we play is inspiring and magical.

Maingard Guitars, Marc Maingard OM Orchestra Model Acoustic Guitar

Here we have a rare new old stock Maingard guitar that we are able to offer at a great price. It came to us from another dealer that went out of business. It is brand new and perfect, offered at Marc's previous pricing so it's a wonderful value as well. This is an amazing Maingard OM in Cocobolo Rosewood and German Spruce. Everything about this guitar is pure Maingard, great clarity, unending power and elegant craftsmanship. Cocobolo is well known for its punch and warmth and it teams up perfectly with German Spruce for a refined sound that is at home performing fingerstyle or with plectrum. A stunning guitar from the luthier at the tip of South Africa, Maingard Guitars! This instrument features:

I feel I can play any style from my repertoire on this guitar, just anything, rock, blues, rags, celtic. It's happy to go where you point it. The neck shape and setup are superbly comfortable. An easy player for sure. This one is awesome at any price, but this price it's simply amazing." - Paul Heumiller
