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.

SOLD - Maingard Guitars, Marc Maingard OM Custom Orchestra Model

    "We jumped at the chance to have Marc build us a custom OM out of rare Pink Ivory wood. This is some of the nicest Pink Ivory we've seen and it has the rich, sophisticated tone we love it for. Marc appointed this one tastefully with his gorgeous Wave rosette, bevels and cutaway. This is a truly unique Maingard guitar." - Paul Heumiller
