MAINGARD GUITARS
Instruments currently produced in Cape Town, South Africa.
Luthier Marc Maingard began repairing his own guitars in the early 1970s and because of the lack of luthiers in South Africa, he created a steady job repairing guitars in the area. Maingard became an apprentice under an English cabinetmaker and he began building violins and cellos. Maingard also worked for Santa Cruz guitars in California as well as studying with James D'Aquisto. Currently, Maingard builds a variety of acoustic guitars in his South African shop and is the only authorized repairman for Gibson, Martin, and Ovation guitars in the area. Maingard offers a variety of guitars ranging from classicals to dreadnoughts to archtops. For more information, visit Maingard's website or contact him directly (see Trademark Index).
