Welcome to Marks Custom Guitars. My focus is on making one at a time, one of a kind custom guitars. There are many guitar makers out there and I don't want to be just another guitar maker. I use the finest wood, the finest finishes and the finest hardware. I build them as if I were going to keep them. I spend a lot of time on the finishes and on the setup.
When finished, they feel like part of me. The action is low but does not buzz. The pickups are adjusted so the volume is equal between them. Tremolo guitars receive a high quality brass tremolo block for incredible sustain and tone. When I install a neck that I purchased, the frets are leveled and polished. If there is a plastic truss rod bushing I remove it and install a black walnut plug giving the neck the high quality look of an American Fender. Even the American Fender necks I have purchased get a good going over. Most times I remove plastic fret markers and install either mother of pearl or abalone dots. Maple fret boards are polished and the polyurethane is removed from the frets. (Even Fender production necks do not do that). Rosewood necks get the grain filled and the fret boards are sanded for a smooth feel.
The bottom line is I always make an effort to produce the highest quality instrument I can. After you purchase one I hope you feel that you have gotten the best "Bang for your buck"
