SOLD - 2008 Maingard Guitars GC - Grand Concert Acoustic Guitar

We asked Marc for something a little different and created this amazing instrument for us. This guitar commands attention with its bookmatched Brazilian Rosewood Fingerboard, Brazilian Bridge and custom handcut rosette. The body is crafted of the most striking set of Brazilian Rosewood with dramatic sapwood in the center and rich, reddish-brown hues and embellished with armrest and ribrest bevels. There's also a custom heelcap and red perfling lines throughout the guitar. It is indeed striking, but in a very natural way that let's the beauty of the wood speak. The tone is all Maingard. Marc's guitars are favored by our customers seeking a versatile guitar that can do it all and do it all superbly. For fingerstyle, strumming, flatpicking, lead work or accompaniament, this guitar sound amazing.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"It's no wonder Marc's guitars have become a favorite of our customers. They offer so much versatility, exquisite craftsmanship and Marc's stylish beauty. Marc has built guitars for players such as Steven Stills and Earl Klugh and once you hear a Maingard you know why top artist would choose one. For this guitar we asked Marc for custom work to make it special but with wood instead of inlay. The result is beyond our expectations, the moment we open the case we were in love. This is a captivating guitar from head to toe and it sounds as good as it looks. The rosette is handcut from Rosewood and ebony, the fingerboard is bookmatched Brazilian and there are armrest and ribrest bevel for the ultimate in comfort, and that's a good thing because you won't want to put this one down!" - Paul Heumiller

"A perfectly balanced instrument with a wonderful, unique look. The sound is crisp and clear with overtones that ring forever." - Al Petteway
